Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My great-grandmother inspired Goldilocks Smart Solutions. She lived independently but faced challenges with daily tasks like showering safely. Watching her struggle made me realize the need for affordable, accessible, and sustainable solutions for seniors and caregivers. Her resilience and love for family motivated me to create a smart shower system that improves safety, promotes independence, and supports eco-friendly living, ensuring others like her can thrive in their own homes.

How do you stay motivated?

My family’s unwavering support and sacrifices are my greatest motivation. They’ve poured so much into me, shaping the person I am today. Every opportunity I pursue and challenge I face is driven by a desire to honor their efforts and repay their belief in me. Their love and resilience remind me why I work so hard—to create a future that reflects their dedication and gives back to them in ways that express my deep gratitude for all they’ve done.

What would you do with the $25,000?

A $25,000 investment would fully fund the first installation of Goldilocks Smart Solutions’ assisted shower systems in a senior living facility in Atlanta, Georgia. This funding would cover system production, installation, and initial app integration, bringing safer, hands-free showering to seniors and caregivers. It’s a crucial step in proving our concept, improving lives, and demonstrating the scalability of our solution for broader adoption in senior care communities.
