In the tapestry of GEM HERSTORY, there are threads that shine with an unparalleled brilliance, woven by women whose impact transcends generations. One such luminous thread is Elle Bee, the mother of our Founder, CEG, and Master GEM of Tribe #1, RIMIDI. Her story is a testament to the power of nurturing love, resilience, and radical authenticity.
Elle Bee's journey as an educator spanned over three decades, with her most notable years at the historic MacArthur North High School, now closed, a haven for some of Miami-Dade County's most challenging and misunderstood youth. Her unmatched teaching style and disciplinarian skills transformed lives, turning turmoil into triumph and guiding her students to graduation and beyond. Her ability to reach and inspire those deemed unreachable speaks volumes of her wisdom and leadership. Her daughter, RIMIDI, had the pleasure and opportunity to witness this skill in action with her own eyes on many occasions. It is no wonder where her strong leadership skills derive from today.
GEM CULTURE tells the story of its GEM HERSTORY, honoring the great women who have been instrumental in the development of GEM CULTURE today.
The roots of Elle Bee's extraordinary capabilities trace back to her own lineage, blending the radical authenticity of her mother with the sweet nurturing of her grandmother. This fusion created a human being and an educator who not only excelled in her profession but also left an indelible mark on the hearts of her students and those who have and have had the pleasure of interacting with her.
With a Specialist degree in Reading Education and a Bachelor's degree in Social Work, Elle Bee's expertise extended beyond the classroom. Her dedication to education is mirrored in her entrepreneurial spirit as the CEO and Co-Owner of Blu Rents 2 U (@theblumanor), a testament to her multifaceted talents and relentless drive.

Elle Bee's influence is not confined to her professional achievements; it permeates her personal life, imbuing her children and grandchildren with an entrepreneurial spirit and a profound sense of authenticity. Known for her honesty, intelligence, and firmness, she is a respected figure in her community, embodying the essence of standing true to one's beliefs and leading with a beautiful heart.
Her belief in GEM CULTURE is rooted in her faith in her daughter and her deep understanding of the needs of today's youth, gained from years of experience in the classroom, as a mother, aunt and as a grandmother. She has become a mother to many outside of her own children. As we celebrate Women’s History Month as well as Social Work Month, we honor Mrs. Elle Bee for her invaluable nurturing, nourishment and investment into RIMIDI as well as her contribution to GEM CULTURE's GEM HERSTORY, for without her, the culture that creates safe spaces and mentorship in order to empower girls to power the world would not be what it is today or even exist.
We salute you Mrs. Elle Bee!
