Gianna Grant — On Creativity, Vision, and Building a Platform for New Voices

As the founder and editor-in-chief of GLOSS Magazine, Gianna Grant has always been guided by one thing: the belief that creativity deserves a home. A writer, filmmaker, and storyteller at heart, Gianna created GLOSS as a space for emerging artists to share their stories, especially those who have felt overlooked or underestimated.

Rooted in modern muses and a love for fashion, film, and music, GLOSS reflects Gianna’s signature style: heartfelt, stylish, intentional, and unafraid to shine. Through her work, she blends personal experience with a natural eye for storytelling, curating interviews and features that highlight talent with depth, emotion, and authenticity.

“I wanted to build something that feels like a community,” she says. “Somewhere creatives, especially locally, can step into the spotlight even if no one gave them permission.”

Her own creative journey began long before GLOSS. As a model, filmmaker, and writer, Gianna has spent years crafting stories that center emotion, identity, and human connection. That same sensibility shapes GLOSS today: a magazine built on care, purpose, and the desire to elevate others.

Balancing her role as creator, editor, interviewer, visionary, and even teacher, Gianna continues to expand GLOSS with the same ambition she encourages in others. She sees the magazine not just as a platform, but as a movement, a place where new voices can rise, where culture and creativity collide, and where every story has the power to inspire.

Her mission is simple: to make space for every creator to feel seen.

With GLOSS Magazine, she’s doing exactly that.
