What is a Perpetual Autobiographer?

Being a “perpetual autobiographer” means you are always writing your story. A perpetual autobiographer™ wields their pen and never relinquishes it. I know very personally that other people will try to write your story for you. Some have even created a script for your life based on your socioeconomic status, zip code, race, gender, education level, and physical features, to name a few things. A perpetual autobiographer™ understands the power of writing their next chapters and knows the best chapters of their lives have yet to be written.

There is power in writing our own stories.

“The best gift I’ve ever given myself was harnessing the power of writing my own story and not allowing others to write it for me.”

– Geneviéve Jones-Wright

Geneviéve’s Story

Empower-Mentor. Visionary. Perpetual Autobiographer.

I decided as a fourth grader that I would go to Howard University School of Law to follow in the footsteps of Justice Thurgood Marshall. My mother, who raised me as a single parent in a low-income home, nurtured my dreams and nourished them as if they were her own.

Because of her unyielding support and God’s faithfulness — and despite what other people had already scripted for my life — I became the very first person in my family to attend a four-year university.

I went on to study internationally and earn three degrees in higher education: a B.A. (University of San Francisco), J.D. (Howard University School of Law), and LL.M. (California Western School of Law).

I am a celebrated attorney and accomplished social entrepreneur.

As a perpetual autobiographer™, I harness the power of being the author of my own life. I take pride in defying odds and crushing stereotypes. I live each day as the changemaker I was created to be.
