Our Team
​
Our esteemed Board of Directors comprises exceptional women who embody a rich blend of diverse talents, unwavering dedication, and a selfless commitment to combatting the period poverty crisis. With their varied backgrounds in careers, lifestyles, and education, our board members possess the unique ability to collaboratively drive meaningful change.
Tiara Missey
President and Founder
Tiara initiated Project: FLOW with the invaluable support of the BlackGirlJoyChallenge Grant, an empowering initiative that encouraged young girls to spread joy to others amidst the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. The visionary concept behind Project: FLOW was born out of Tiara's desire to bring happiness and positivity to women during this difficult time. Recognizing the financial burden associated with period products, which are often subject to taxes in certain states, Tiara understood the significance of women supporting one another and joining forces to combat period poverty.
Tiara received her Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience with a pre-medicine concentration from Georgia State University. She currently works in BioTech with aspirations to pursue medicine. Tiara enjoys being a plant mom, hanging out with her friends, and traveling.
