🙋🏽♀️ Hey, I’m Dre Thomas
I founded a nonprofit called Smile On Me & won a few awards that got my face in Times Square, twice. I got to break some rules with Bustle, host a free summer camp for BIPOC girls, chat with Oprah and Elizabeth Strout about Olivia, Again, and was honored as an extraordinary woman. I’m an empath who thrives on deep conversations & finds joy in creatively solving problems. You can find me in New York ✨
❥Welcome to Everyday Ribbons, a little column fueled by overthinking and run-on sentences.
Read along as I wander through thoughts and stories and try my best to capture the simplicity and complexity of life. It’s my little space on the internet to reflect, ponder, celebrate, and just be. There’s no specific agenda.

Everyday Ribbons newsletter + buy me a coffee as I live out my New York City writer dreams, writing my little column from a cozy cafe in Brooklyn with jazz music playing in my AirPods, momentarily forgetting about having to do laundry and cook dinner tonight.
