Hello, my name is Juliette Mangon. I’m a 20-year-old studying Computer Science and Mathematics at NYU, with a minor in Business of Entertainment, Media, and Technology. I've always been drawn to the emotional power of music. Some of my favorite artists are Phoebe Bridgers, Bright Eyes, Bob Dylan, and Bladee, and I love exploring how digital tools can foster meaningful connections between listeners, artists, and the platforms that connect them. I also paint, draw, and occasionally develop websites, blending visual design with technical creativity. This summer, I'm a music tech mentee in the She Is The Music mentorship program and working as an AI/ML intern at Enlaye, developing NLP and LLM tools to streamline contract workflows. I'm especially interested in opportunities that merge creative expression with analytical thinking to build thoughtful, artist-centered digital experiences.

Sherie is a Los Angeles Based, Atlanta raised, Haitian-American artist with an impressive set of talents beyond what meets the eye.From chart-breaking penmanship to her violin mastery, Sherie is blending it all into her artistry to deliver an eclectic sound layered with angelic melodies. Her creative abilities know no bounds, taking you across a range of genres from R&B, soul, classic to alternative, pop, and urban. As an independent artist currently, Sherie has reached over a million streams on singles alone and is dropping her EP “Yours Deeply” on March 14th. “Yours Deeply” straddles two parallel lines and acts as both a closing and an opening, the moment in-between walking away and final revelation as an offering of vulnerability and trust of oneself that’ll hopefully lead to strength and resilience. Sheries lyrics have seen the heights of a platinum Billboard #1 chart topper with Ariana Grande’s “Positions”, and her music has reached into the hearts of many while opening for superstars like Alicia Keys. Her violin mastery has been put on display playing strings for artists like H.E.R. and awards shows like the Oscars, Espys, Grammys and more.
