DeVasha Lloyd is a growth executive, entrepreneur, publisher, and strategic advisor with more than two decades of experience building businesses, generating revenue, and creating high-value partnerships across media, healthcare, publishing, and emerging technology.
With $100M+ in career sales, DeVasha has built multimillion-dollar businesses and pipelines, negotiated six- and seven-figure engagements, and led high-performing commercial teams. Her executive career includes leadership roles with Forbes Books, WebMD, Everyday Health Group, and Castle Connolly Top Doctors, where she worked at the intersection of business development, strategic partnerships, healthcare, digital media, and thought leadership.
DeVasha’s career has never been defined by corporate leadership alone.
She co-founded Real Savvy Media, helping build and scale the health and lifestyle media company through its acquisition by Disney Interactive Media Group—experience that shaped her ability to recognize opportunity, build something from the ground up, and create enterprise value.
Today, she brings that same entrepreneurial mindset to the businesses, leaders, and ideas she helps grow.
As Founder & CEO of Elevation Publishing Group, DeVasha works with accomplished executives, entrepreneurs, physicians, academics, and industry leaders to transform expertise into influential books, thought-leadership platforms, and enduring intellectual property.
Her approach extends beyond publishing a book. She helps leaders identify the ideas they should own, articulate them powerfully, and strategically position those ideas to expand their authority, visibility, and impact.
DeVasha also works selectively with organizations as a fractional growth and business development executive and strategic advisor, bringing senior-level commercial leadership to companies at moments of growth, transition, or opportunity.
Her work centers on:
Whether building a company, negotiating a multimillion-dollar partnership, developing an executive’s book, or identifying a new revenue opportunity, DeVasha’s strength is the same:
She sees opportunity, connects the right people and ideas, and builds the strategy to turn possibility into measurable growth.
Let’s Build What’s Next.

Some people are operators. Some are rainmakers. Some are strategists. Some are entrepreneurs.
I’ve spent my career being all four.
I can walk into a conversation, understand the opportunity, identify the decision-makers, connect the right people, and determine how to turn an idea into something commercially viable.
That’s the DeVasha Difference!
I’ve built businesses, revenue engines, commercial teams, partnerships, publishing platforms, and brands—from the ground up and from inside major organizations.
Not transactional selling. Complex, high-value, relationship-driven business development. I understand how to get into the right rooms, uncover what matters to the people in them, and create opportunities where both sides win.
People. Ideas. Industries. Opportunities.
My career has crossed healthcare, media, publishing, technology, entrepreneurship, and the creative world. That range gives me an unusual ability to see connections others miss.
A great idea isn’t enough.
I help leaders determine what they know that the market needs—and then turn that expertise into a platform, partnership, business opportunity, book, or intellectual property that creates lasting value.
Strategy matters. Execution matters more.
I know how to move from “We should…” to “Here’s how.”
That’s why I’m most valuable when the opportunity is ambitious, the path isn’t obvious, and someone needs to connect the dots.
But what I really do is see opportunity—and know what to do with it.

Do It Deva is where creativity, collaboration, and a little bit of “let’s just make it happen” come together.
Built as a play on my name—and my natural tendency to simply do the thing—Do It Deva is my creative home for entertainment, experiences, original ideas, passion projects, and select creative consulting.
It’s where I put on my entertainer’s hat, tap into my creative side, and help bring great ideas to life—whether they’re mine or someone else’s.
From live events and unique experiences to creative collaborations, original content, brand storytelling, and special projects, Do It Deva is about taking an idea and figuring out what it could become.
For clients, that means starting with the vision. I listen, connect the dots, and help shape the strategy, story, experience, or execution around what they’re trying to create—without losing the personality and originality that made the idea exciting in the first place.
Some projects are strategic. Some are creative. Some are purely for the joy of making something memorable.
And sometimes, you just need someone who can see the vision—and do it.
