Modjossorica Elysee

Rica Elysee – a funded Black Women entrepreneur in tech - was a successful community organizer, marketer, and fundraising exec who had founded an influential beauty and makeup community for women of color in Boston. Rica was also helping take care of a disabled family member and she noticed how confident hair appointments made this family member feel - but it was hard to find accessible salons and to book and keep appointments. She noticed that most women in her beauty group faced similar problems - late or canceled appointments and long waits for beauty services. So she used her knowledge of the beauty industry, marketing and fundraising to try to solve the “beauty bookings” problem.

Her startup, BeautyLynk (beautylynk.com) brings the beauty salon into women's homes.

She also has a passion to help female entrepreneurs through her work #AttheTable (www.atthetable.io) and #FemaleFoundersDay

"Quand tu fais appel à un zèbre, tu lui demandes pas d'enlever ses rayures !"
Ludo (Gilles Lellouche) dans Ma vie en l'air - Rémi Bezançon - 2005

Depuis 10 ans maintenant j'aime bien gratter et provoquer partout où je passe, pour comprendre comment fonctionnent les choses (organisations, interactions humaines, business model, ...) et pourquoi on ne ferait pas autrement.

Aimant toucher à tout j'interviens au sein de plusieurs collectifs, dans plusieurs domaines, pour arriver à mes fins : imaginer et se projeter dans le futur, repenser les organisations et les manières de travailler, interroger le positionnement et la valeur des offres (produits et services), travailler la prise de parole et la mise en récit.

J'aime beaucoup Gaston Lagaffe, les Casseurs Flowters, les joggings et les casquettes. Et les Dinosaurus aussi.
