An astute businesswoman who unapologetically pursues excellence in all she does, Myleik Teele is the founder and Chief Experience Officer of curlBOX, the first monthly subscription service for naturally curly hair. Through her notable career as a public relations executive, Myleik’s ability to instinctively identify and market popular trends to the masses, garnered her opportunities to work with brands such as Calvin Klein Cosmetics, The Grammy Awards, Nike, and a stellar roster of clients across the entertainment, tech, and beauty industries.

Since the launch of curlBOX in 2011, L’Oreal, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Target, Walmart, and SheaMoisture is a short list of brands that have trusted Myleik’s vision of making the lives of black women easier by providing them with the high-quality selection of products they deserve.

A teacher at heart, her wildly popular, #MyTaughtYou podcast has become her global classroom where women from all walks of life tune in for guidance and a healthy dose of motivation to live life on their own terms. In 2016, #MyTaughtYou saw over 2 million downloads and the listenership continues to grow.

Based in Atlanta, GA, Myleik Teele is a woman who knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to go after it. She regularly gives inspiring talks around the country centered around business, personal branding, and women’s empowerment. When she’s not working on building her empire, you can find her exploring the world through travel, hidden behind the pages of a good book, or nurturing her future sommelier ambitions.
