Meet T. Ringgold
BUSINESS | BRAINS | BEAUTY
Your story is what you have, what you will always have. It is something to own.
Michelle Obama
Hailing from Austin, TX, by way of Harker Heights, Texas, Toni Ringgold has been making her mark in the entertainment industry since 2009. Music is in her roots and singing in the church is where she started. Her captivating voice has taken her all over the country and put her on many stages. From Sunset Blvd to the Symphony Orchestra, her grace and sincere delivery grips every audience. But don’t put her in a box just yet.
Toni is a multifaceted force to be reckoned with! She is a radio personality with B106, a Broadway World nominated actress, talented songwriter, and the proud owner of T. Ringgold Academy of Arts where she helps others find their unique musical voice through private voice, piano, public speaking, and acting courses - virtually or in person!
Her single “SHINE”, released as a tribute to her coined motto “There’s enough sun, for EVERYONE to shine” made international charts including Amazon’s Hot New Releases- Soul (UK), Top 10 in the West Indies, and has continuous airplay in the U.S. Her goal is simple, to put a smile on people’s faces and to inspire them to go after their dreams. If she can do it, they can too!
