people and foster community building.

is her own networking event –
"Caribbean Riddimz"
which occurs every 3rd Thursday at
popular venues like the Sky Club (Zanzibar on the
Waterfront) and showcases the best of DC's
independent artists, business presentations, and a
Caribbean after-party.
A

Jamaica, Ms. Parke has been living in the DC
