FARRINHEIT 411 has a lot to celebrate lately! Last week the 411 team celebrated 1 year since hitting the web with the hottest in entertainment. Since launching last summer, Farrin Hymon has put countless hours into building FARRINHEIT 411. Beginning her journey with FARRIHEIET 411 in Atlanta, GA, Farrin was determined she wasn't stopping until FARRINHEIT rings bells worldwide.
Through FARRINHEIT 411, Farrin has found her true passion in entrepreneurship, creative directing, blogging, public relations, media training and helping those around her set their dreams on fire! Combining all of those things and much more, Farrin created FARRINHEIT Entertainment & Media. FARRINHEIT Entertainment & Media (FEM) services clients with all of their entertainment and media needs, assisting them to reaching their highest potential while captivating a broad audience.
Although FARRINHEIT Entertainment & Media is still in it's early stages, Farrin has been fortunate enough to land her first clients upon graduating from college. She's worked with Atlanta based shoe company and philanthropy organization Steps by Steps (who also placed on HBCU's Top 30 Under 30 List), with public relations services in gearing for the release of their summer 2014 collection.
In June FARRINHEIT Entertainment & Media welcomed their very first intern to the team Jasmin Rivers, a student currently attending The University of North Carolina at Charlotte. The FARRINHEIT Entertainment & Media team also consist of Mikah Fuller, FARRINHEIT 411 Photographer/Digital Content Manager and Danielle Jackson, FARRINHEIT 411 Brand Ambassador Charlotte. Fuller and Jackson both graduates of Spelman College began with FARRINHEIT 411 in the fall of 2013.
Last month, FARRINHEIT 411 had the privilege to cover this year's BET Experience in Los Angeles, California. To top off a successful trip of great connections, fun, and tons of work, FARRINHEIT 411 ended it's LA trip with a celebration of 1 year! Although Farrin is the face and name behind the FARRINHEIT brand, she has not done it alone. She shares her hard work and success with her team, friends, and family.
The true driving force behind FARRINHEIT Entertainment & Media and the inspiration behind turning a blog into a business is FARRINHEIT 411; which Farrin began the summer of her senior year at Spelman College. After becoming frustrated with not landing opportunities in the entertainment field because of her degree in Psychology, Farrin created an outlet that allowed her not only to freely exercise her passion and interest in entertainment & media, but to gain work experience. Running with her catchy social media name "fARRINHEIT", branding her name only felt right.
FARRINHEIT 411 delivers "The HOTTEST In Entertainment" providing exclusive event coverage, entertainment news, hot topics, celebrity interactions and interviews. FARRINHEIT 411 is also an outlet for the new & next to have a platform to display their talents. FARRINHEIT 411 has lead Farrin and her team to places they'd never thought they would see so fast. The site has created a buzz worthy name in its industry and has become a daily stop on the web for many viewers.
Being nominated and listed as one of HBCU's Top 30 Under 30 is truly an honor! FARRINHEIT Entertainment & Media thanks HBCU Buzz for shinning light on the FARRINHEIT brand as well as Spelman College! As a proud alum of a prestigious HBCU, Farrin celebrates her success with the other HBCU students and alum on this year's list!S
