“They are truly dedicated to supporting and elevating HBCU students”
My name is Amarachukwu Uzondu, and I serve as the 67th Miss Hampton University. My experience with Impressions of Beauty has been nothing short of amazing. I’ve felt continuous support and encouragement from IOB staff and leaders, as well as my fellow sister queens.
They are truly dedicated to supporting and elevating HBCU students, which is evident in the IOB Campus Queen Community and Brand Ambassador Collective. This is reflected in the content we produce and the friendships we build!

"IOB Has Opened Numerous Opportunities for Which I Am Forever Grateful"
I am Ari Cole, a senior at Clark Atlanta University. Being a part of the IOB Collective program has not only allowed me to grow professionally but also has enabled me to collaborate with brands that I love.
Through this program, I have gained valuable insights into the complexities of social media, from adjusting content to fit each brand's specific needs to negotiating and presenting myself and my work in a professional manner. I believe IOB has been instrumental in my growth and has bridged the gap for any student serious about content creation. IOB has opened numerous opportunities for which I am forever grateful.
