BIO

ya gurl.

Zhenel, a wife, daughter of Jesus, Christian Artist, Producer, Songwriter, Educator and Mentor from Memphis, TN. She is also co-Founder and co-CEO, alongside her husband, JusDevin, of The Kingdom Expoa virtual Christian school & music studio, tailored to push children of Christ closer to Him, using their gifts, skillsets, and talents. She also serves as the Founder & CEO of The Rawlinson Scholarship Foundation; founded in 2020, while unemployed during the COVID-19 pandemic, Zhenel used profits from her creative brand, to award 2 college students, experiencing financial hardships.


She started singing at 3 years old, getting much of her influence from church and growing up in a very musically-inclined household. She loves helping and mentoring people from different backgrounds, and has hopes and dreams of one day, being able to help people in their walk with God in their journey of faith and healing across the world. A bit old-school, with a modernized finish, she emphasizes the importance of being transparent, holy, speaking on the uncomfortable topics, while making people feel loved all at once, focusing her music on the Gospel, and spreading Truth. She's sung in school choirs, plays and musicals, talent shows, festivals, city, state and community choirs. Determined, passionate, nurturing and charismatic, are only a few words to describe her as an individual. Even though she has experienced trauma, and much pain and struggling of her own, her faith in the Lord keeps her motivated and grounded daily. 


An alumna of The Ohio State University, she holds a Bachelor's degree in Music, focusing on Voice, and a minor in Music, Media, and Enterprise. While in college, Zhenel has performed in big concerts, with headlining artists and musicians. She has performed in 3 annual African American Heritage Festivals, and been apart of the Women's Glee Club, Symphonic Choir, and Ohio Show Band. 

​

She is also currently an instructor, ministering, teaching and offering her services, 1-on-1 virtually in Voice, with more lessons and courses in the following Music Production, Songwriting, and other core fundamentals.

As a creative entrepreneur, she has taught private virtual lessons, internationally, to approximately 40 students ranging from ages 8 to 50 beginning in January 2022.

​

Consistently striving for better, Zhenel stands firm in "Jesus is THE reason. The answer. Your healing, freedom, deliverance, and salvation, is with Him."
