Greetings, INDI Community!

I’m Shalita Wells—known to most as Li—the founder of INDI BY LI, a lifestyle brand rooted in intention, quality, and everyday ease. I believe luxury should feel personal, accessible, and deeply comforting—something you experience in the moments that matter most.

My background blends creative vision with strong business leadership.

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Pedology from Bowie State University, followed by a Master of Science in Human Resources and an MBA (Master of Business Administration) from the University of Maryland. Over the past 15 years, I’ve built a career across the East Coast in leadership roles including Center Director of Operations, Human Resources {HR} Manager, HR Director, HR Business Partner and Regional HR Director for multiple states, organizations and government entities.

This experience shaped how I approach INDI BY LI, with structure, innovation, and a people-first mindset guiding every decision.

Beyond my professional career, my inspiration has always come from family, culture, food, and creating with my hands. Cooking meals that bring people together, crafting, listening to music, traveling, and sharing new experiences with family and friends are the moments that ground me. These experiences taught me that true luxury isn’t loud - it’s felt. It’s being present. It’s care.

I created INDI BY LI by bringing together everything I love into a collection of elevated everyday essentials. From cooking a beautifully seasoned meal with our spice collection, to unwinding with a softly glowing candle, to practicing self-care through thoughtfully crafted body products, each item is designed to help people feel good—inside their homes and within themselves. INDI BY LI exists to encourage small, meaningful choices that say, I deserve this moment and to do something good for myself.

Collaboration, creativity, and community are at the heart of the brand. I believe the most impactful products are created with intention and shared with care. INDI BY LI is an invitation to slow down, savor, and choose yourself—every day.

With Gratitude, 

Shalita F. Wells
