Hi, I’m Theresa Dickerson! I am the creator of the Blessed Brilliant Beautiful blog! I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 2019 with a degree in English nonfiction writing.
Currently, I study medical physiology at Case Western Reserve University and do research in nutrition and health disparities in cardiac and general surgery.
I love reading, writing, playing the piano, movies, baking, historical TV shows, serving others in my community, and watching documentaries about space! (In another life I will be an astrophysicist, lol) I am passionate about empowering girls of all ages and have started a non-profit called Project Girl Undefined to help support and encourage young girls and women into academic and career fields where they are underrepresented. I hope to use Blessed Brilliant Beautiful as a platform to engage and inspire young women to live their lives to the fullest. Follow me on my journey through life!
