After college, it was off to Los Angeles, California where she embarked on a career as a model in print, and on the runway and an actress in videos, commercials & television.

What began as an artist deal is now a digital distribution agreement with XLP Distribution through which she runs the digital label Slack Traxx Entertainment,  through which several projects have been released worldwide. The team stepped into and gained success in the Southern Soul genre with production, songwriting, and releases. They were honored for their work (digitizing, restoration, and audio repair) on the C.L. Franklin Project which climbed Billboard charts to #1.  Tanji’s ventures have included managing and mentoring teen girl group Mademoiselle and the male group Shilo; she has directed music videos for several artists and produced live runway shows.  She is currently planning a strategic marketing and promotion plan for new releases and developing MarieAnn Production’s first family adventure film.
