About Serena Appiah

HI, I’M SERENA APPIAH!

Let’s just start with the obvious: how in the world do you say my last name?!

I’ll  make it easy for you: it rhymes with IKEA. 🙂 My husband is Ghanaian, and “Appiah” is a very common name, sort of like how “Smith” is very common here in the U.S.

So moving on….

I’m the face behind Thrift Diving, a blog that inspires you to decorate, improve, and maintain your home on a DIY (do-it-yourself) budget.

When I was 6 years old, I wanted to be a cab driver.

Yes–a cab driver. I wanted to get paid to be lazy and drive people around.

Thankfully, my career aspirations evolved into something more creative, which turned into being a professional DIY blogger. (You can read more about my journey in 2015 from working full-time to becoming a full-time blogger).

Thanks for taking the time to learn more about my family and me!

(BRANDS: For more information about working with me, I’d love for you to check out my Media page or my Advertise page.)
