Her dedication to the organization continued at the state level, where she served as Youth State Treasurer in 2018 and was elected Texas Youth & College Division State President in 2019, a position she held until 2023.
Beyond her NAACP leadership, Shevann is a Generation Vote National C4 Board member, where she supports the development of the next generation of civic leaders committed to electoral justice. Her dedication to service is further reflected in her membership in Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated.
Professionally, Shevann is a skilled Management Consultant specializing in change management and organizational learning. She is also the founder of B RARE Consulting, a firm that provides expertise in marketing, communications, leadership development, organizational effectiveness, and strategic growth.
