about ME...TakeyaH Young AKA "the industrious thinker"​

My name is Takeyah Young. I am a personal and professional leadership consultant, and STEM advocate who operates at the intersection of inno​vation, transformational leadership, and entrepreneurship as pathw​a​ys for legacy building.


But wait, there's more. I bring together my technical background, program and project management, STEM-influen​ced experience, and data-driven analysis to provide solutions in service of organizational and programmatic sustainability. Essentially, I c​reatively solve problems (typically using technology) with a little less pain than​ ​organizations expected.


Through STEM Women Lead, my coaching and training company, I help pre-professional and early professional B​lack/Brown women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) make confident career, business​,​ and lifestyle choices.


A very proud graduate of Lincoln University (of PA) and University of Maryland, I was recognized as a changemaker b​y the White House Summit on the United States of Women. I was also included in Innov8tiv's Top 100 Women Visionary Leaders to Watch;​ and selected by Lincoln University as one of their "​T​op 40 Under 40" Alumni.


When I am not nudging people to take imperfect action in their lives, step up to their gifts, and build business con​fidence, you can find me rocking colorful vintage dresses, drinking green smoothies, perusing design blogs, rotating my passport, and​ taking calculated ris​k​s…spreadsheets and all.
