Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My inspiration in business is to create a helpful, creative, meaningful impact to my community and when I say my community I am referring to my generation. I want to educate people and create a safe environment for anyone who wants to pursue a creative career, because many people in my generation feel like they aren’t enough or struggle with identifying their true passion if it involves creativity whether that’s art, dance, acting, music, writing, gardening, etc.

How do you stay motivated?

Staying motivated means keeping my dreams alive and celebrating every win, big or small. I think about the future I’m building, not just for myself, but for my family and friends too. Even when my motivation drops, remembering what I’m working towards keeps me ready and willing to do it all over again daily. Also, more than anything I plan to make my mom proud.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Building generational wealth and minimizing debt shows a powerful vision for the future. As I’ve grown, my goal to create wealth for my kids and grandkids, plus understanding how to grow that wealth, is inspiring. Giving back to my community and family who've supported me from start to finish is key, especially since my community isn't always a priority. My dream to mentor, create programs, and invest in small businesses and communities shows a deep commitment to unity and growth.
