Myrriah Gossett

Myrriah will ask for just about anything, and she isn’t afraid of no. That’s how how she got her first job: by walking into a newspaper office at 18 and demanding a meeting with the photo editor. Myrriah has been running marketing and communications for nonprofits for the last ten years, and works daily to topple the patriarchy while listening to a steady stream of podcasts. Myrriah holds a Masters of Science in Media Management from The New School and has the debt to prove it. Though the first thing people usually notice is her sea-creaturely curly hair, she relishes being seen as a good friend and partner and the kind of go-getter that makes people wonder, “When does she sleep?”
