Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My greatest inspiration is my mother, a woman who turned pain into purpose and built with resilience, faith, and integrity. Watching her lead, serve, and rise without compromise shaped how I show up in business. She taught me that impact matters more than recognition and that legacy is built through service, not noise.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by anchoring my work in purpose. I’m not just building a business, I’m building systems that shift narratives and create access. When it gets hard, I remind myself who this is for: the next generation of women, youth, and leaders who deserve to be seen, heard, and supported. Discipline carries me when motivation fluctuates.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would invest the $25,000 into scaling SheGaze Media Inc. This includes developing accessible communication training for women and youth, strengthening digital infrastructure, and launching community-centered workshops. The goal is to build sustainable systems that amplify underrepresented voices and create long-term impact, not just short-term visibility.
