Who or what is your inspiration in business?

I am inspired by Brené Brown, Andrew Huberman, and Robin Williams in good will hunting. After being a swim coach and instructor, volunteering for mental health organizations, and working with children with disabilities, I know I have a talent and passion for helping and working with others. My Dad is a musician and has entrepreneurial skills as he runs his own music business, my upbringing was hard as I am a child of divorce and addictions but music and art saved me and kept me on track!

How do you stay motivated?

I have a powerful why that motivates me each day. My family is very important to me as they are my support system and I love them unconditionally. Due to circumstances, multiple family members have experienced mental health challenges and one thing that keeps me going is helping them. I also know that helping others energizes me and excites me!

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would invest $10,000 of it, as I am going to school (student loans) and will need to pay off my school debts, and I would also share some of it with my brothers for my nephews’ future education ($3 000 per kid - $9 000 total) with the last $6 000 I would take my mom on a trip to Europe!
