Yolanda Brathwaite, @growngirlsnyc, is the creator of GrownGirlsNYC. Born in
Long Island, NY, from a very young age she was motivated to be independent following in her mother’s footsteps. Her mother raised her and her sister as a single parent. Despite any forms of adversity her mother was still able to provide for them without excuses. That strong leadership helped Yolanda to become a positive influence on her two children, family, friends and community.

After graduating from Hempstead High, at the young age of 18 she owned and operated Black Reign Hair Salon. Here she learned early about the hard-work and dedication that is required in life to succeed.
​
In 2014 Yolanda started All Girls/Guys Rocks (AGR) as an apparel company. The idea was to remind the world that despite their circumstances they are strong individuals. With the success of that it grew to include GrownGirlsNYC as well.
​
Yolanda has had her own medical issues as well including kidney failure and being diagnosed with potential breast cancer. Those setbacks have not stopped her. She continues to live her life to its fullest potential. She currently works full-time as an anesthesiology tech. With her youthful energy she even has time to brand and establish GrownGirls NYC as a loving wife, mother and grandmother.
