Devine Blacksher has always been a brand storyteller, even during her years as a journalist. Over more than a decade in fashion editorial, her writing has appeared in The New York Times, New York Magazine, The Cut, Vogue, Essence, The Strategist, and Dazed, covering the culture, style, and identities that shape how people see themselves. That continues to be the lens she brings to every project.

Raised in Metro Detroit and a graduate of the University of Michigan, Devine brings an editor's eye to creative work. She most recently led copy for Walmart's Hot Girl Universe campaign with Megan Thee Stallion and wrote creative copy for Google's Karol G × Coachella campaign. The instinct behind her commercial work is the same one that made her a compelling writer: understand what people care about, then tell a story they can't forget.

Community has always been part of that work. Devine is a founding member of To Many More and a Hike Lead for Hike Clerb, helping create spaces where connection is just as important as conversation.

She's currently available for brand strategy, creative direction, copywriting, and feature writing for brands and publications looking for work with cultural fluency, editorial rigor, and a point of view.
