Divinia Shorter is a DMV-born-and-raised theater artist and writer. A proud queer Black Latina, Divinia is excited to bring her background and EDI work to both her artistry and the LINK team as a Senior Associate.

At LINK, Divinia takes a hands-on approach with our clients to complete tasks such as event management, communications strategizing, media pitching, web rebranding, and customer satisfaction. Divinia’s long history of dramaturgy work in the theater has created connections and know-how of work systems in DC and nationally. With a writer-centered approach to her work, Divinia focuses on fostering connections, sharpening thematic clarity, and landing the messages of stories—both professional and artistic. With a background in novel writing, unusual storytelling is her specialty.

Divinia is the co-founder of Greatest City Collective, a non-profit focused on uplifting artists and the social causes they care about, and host to the Collective’s podcast Bus Ride Talks. A writer of many forms, her current focus is her full-length play Queens and a YA novel. When she’s not writing or talking about writing, she can be found with her horse, Faith, or her very tiny cat, Artemis.
