Stefaniyemiya Ingram
Stefaniyemiya Ingram, a native of Southern California and a member of the Fulton County community for the past 25 years, operates multiple and diverse types of businesses throughout the Atlanta Metropolitan area; each created with a focus on improving, enhancing, and generating opportunities for Atlanta residents. She is an entrepreneur, interior decorator, energy shifter, curator of furniture, published photographer, and philanthropist.
Stefaniyemiya has supported Walter Rodney Foundation for the past 14 years and currently serves on its Advisory Board. She is on the Host Committee of the BronzeLens Film Festival, and is a proud member of Sistagraphy-a collective of African-American women photographers. Stefaniyemiya was recently selected as one of Kenny Leon’s True Colors’ 52 Weeks of Women “Shero’s", and her Dihvinely Konnecked Commissions program was launched as part of True Colors’ “Next Narrative” initiative. She is also a supporter of Rashan Ali's Sporty Girls, Inc. During the 2020 year, through her Shifting Energy From the HeARTT, a non-profit foundation, Stefaniyemiya awarded $30,000 in grants to small business creatives experiencing COVID-19 related hardship. Her project, "Own your own Shift”, a collaboration with Dr. Joy Beckwith, is focused on the importance of "honoring your whole self". Most recently, Stefaniyemiya partnered with “The Carter Center” (Pres. Jimmy Carter’s foundation) and the city of Atlanta, by donating commercial wall space for The Center’s international Inform Women, Transform Lives campaign mural.
In 2021, Stefaniyemiya celebrated her 25th year operating her uniquely special retail space, Shifting Energy Eclectic Collectibles and Interiors. Shifting Energy was started in California and, after moving to Cascade Road in Southwest Atlanta 22 years ago, became a premiere boutique featured in the Atlanta Journal Constitution and Essence Magazine. In the fall of 2024, Shifting Energy Eclectic Collectibles and Interiors will reopen at, and along with, Stefaniyemiya’s much anticipated, newly renovated Lee Street facility (a mixed use complex that will also house a theater, two lounges, an outdoor marketplace, and other unique event rental spaces). Coming soon is the grand opening of her iconic “Thee Historic House on Avon” (affectionately known by some as “Madea’s House”).
Stefaniyemiya Ingram is the CEO of Dihvinely Konnecked Productions, which is a divinely inspired multi-level production company that promotes, produces, sponsors, and designs projects/events that bring people together for the greater good. We are dedicated to kind projects with purpose.
