Personal Details

Bio

Fionna Wright is a passionate advocate for emotional well-being and inclusivity. She earned her undergraduate degree from UC Riverside and a Master’s from the Academy of Art University. Currently, she is pursuing her Master of Science in Digital Media Management at USC, Class of 2025.

With a successful career in performance marketing and advertising in Los Angeles, Fionna’s mission deepened when her three-year-old daughter expressed discomfort with her skin color. This pivotal moment inspired Fionna to foster her daughter's self-confidence and celebrate diversity. As a bi-racial woman, Fionna recognizes the critical importance of representation. Together with her daughter, she co-authored two children’s books, one of which has been translated into Spanish, featuring diverse characters that reflect their own family and friends, and they also created "Mindful Littles," inclusive affirmation cards designed for children.

In addition, Fionna developed "Affirmations for the Divine Feminine," a collection of inclusive affirmation cards for women from all backgrounds. Their impactful work has been highlighted on national platforms, including the OWN Network, NBC, and Spectrum News, and their first book was featured in the gift bags at the 2021 Grammy Awards. This mother-daughter duo continues to inspire, using creativity to champion inclusivity and mindfulness.

The ROI of Diversity Marketing

In “The ROI of diversity marketing,” I encourage diversity and inclusion in our advertising so that everyone feels represented, valued, and a sense of belonging by examining companies who have effectively incorporated diversity and inclusion and the successful results from doing so, as well as companies who have done it poorly and how their business suffered as a result. In accomplishing this, more loyal customer base will be developed and we will see a new customer base purchasing from the companies that they see themselves represented in. In my talk, I use my experience with my daughter as we were faced with skin color and having to find ways to make sure she was represented in the world around her when she, at 3 years old, told me that she did not want to have brown skin anymore.

  • inspiring, well prepared and an effective presentation. Within the first 30 seconds i can feel her pain and passion in getting her message out. Her examples were on point, related to the overall message and most importantly, true. This is the kind of presentation that pierces your soul whether you are in her situation or not, whether you agree with her or not. It doesn't matter what side of the fence you sit on, she will leave you inspired and ready for change.
