Hi friends - my name is Tameka and I am a TV and film enthusiast. New York born, Florida raised, I enjoy meeting and connecting with people of all walks of life. Remember when you had to watch a show the night before to avoid spoilers at school or at work? Breaking Bad, Scandal, Empire, Game of Thrones? Those were the shows that kept my friends and I locked in week-to-week, sharing our thoughts and observations. I look forward to being on this journey with you, talking about programs, movies and digital content that makes us laugh, cry or say "I know you lying!"
Kae (Staff Writer)
Hello, I am Karen-Elizabeth, but, the people who say they love me, call me Kae! Born in North Carolina, raised in Germany and Texas, I have lived my entire life around the arts. My father was a noted artist/actor/cartoonist, and filled our family home and imaginations with creativity of all kinds through painting, drawing, theater, music, and literature. From the dramatic to the cinematic, the arts have always connected me to different people, places, and experiences. In the third grade, I discovered my own passion for the arts through writing and watching movies and must-see TV. Joining the Je-Ree Reviews Media team gives me the opportunity to bring these loves back together.
A graduate of Texas Tech University with a degree in journalism, I am a published author, wanna-be poet, corporate communicator, innovation enthusiast, OG Star Wars fan, obsessed with crossword puzzles done in ink, Formula One racing, and calculating the ideal number microwave minutes to not burn a bag of popcorn!

Stephany (Staff Writer)
Hola mi gente! Life long lover of books. My tastes generally lean towards Romance although I’m always ready for a good Fantasy or Paranormal fiction. Love a good spicy book but I can also rock with clean Y.A. Although physical books are my preferred format, I mostly read ebooks and audio due to the convenience. Constantly on the hunt for the best love stories from indie BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and other marginalized authors, so please send me ALL the recs (A+ if the MC is plus sized). I do a lot of ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) reviews, (mostly Romance) and trilogy/series.
You can reach out with your book recommendations & follow me via IG, Storygraph, Fable & Goodreads under TravelingBookieMonster.
