about us
My name is Akeia Keith, founder and CEO of GirlFluence, LLC. GirlFluence, LLC was created as a training experience for the development of responsible firearms owners, specifically women. GirlFluence, LLC is a safe environment where women of all walks of life are empowered and educated about the ownership of firearms in addition to self defense via martial arts and personal safety measures outside of the use of a firearm. .
GirlFluence is dear to my heart because it gives me the great opportunity to meet and educate phenomenal people in a non-judgemental space where questions can be answered and they leave with a better understanding of the importance of providing safety for themselves and their families.
I am a Criminal Justice major with an extensive law enforcement background. My career path ignited the teacher in me to begin training women in law enforcement how to properly use their firearms with confidence and accuracy. In addition, my law enforcement career path has allowed me to be trained by army vets on a weekly basis to work on my personal marksmanship.
Conclusively, I am aiming to create the best learning experience for women as we graciously embark upon the firearm industry. Your experience with me as your Certified Firearms Instructor will be indelible. Let’s win together. See you at the range.
