What is the Entrepreneur of Impact?
Learn MoreWhen I was growing up, my family always had small businesses. My grandfather and some other family members owned a auto repair shop, my mom owned a hair salon and my dad owned a lounge. I have always been inspired by my family's businesses, but could never seem to find my niche, until now! Although my family owned businesses, they failed to teach us how to start and run a business. I want to teach the younger generation.
How do you stay motivated?My 2 daughters., Erin & Evin keep me motivated. I want them to see that being an entrepreneur is possible and I want them to aspire to that as well. I also want to leave them a legacy. I put my blood, sweat and tears into this because I believe in my product and what I'm doing. I want people to know that healthy can be delicious and we can solve a lot of our medical problems by changing how we view our food and drinks. I personally have lowered my blood pressure as well as my cholesterol
What would you do with the $25,000?I would invest in my business! I believe my next natural progression is a food truck, and would like to invest in one, along with some commercial juicers and equipment.
