Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My inspiration comes from everyday entrepreneurs who build something meaningful despite obstacles. I’m especially inspired by women and minority founders whom was looked upon as another statistic, turn ideas into opportunities that uplift entire communities. Seeing people create jobs, provide services, and build generational wealth motivates me to keep pushing forward. I believe entrepreneurship is one of the most powerful tools we have to create impact and open doors for others.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by the responsibility and opportunity that comes with entrepreneurship. Every business I build represents a chance to create jobs, serve my community, and show others that ownership is possible. When challenges arise, I remind myself that the journey is bigger than me—it’s about building generational wealth, expanding opportunities, and proving that vision, resilience, and hard work can transform lives. That mission keeps me focused every day.

What would you do with the $25,000?

The $25,000 would allow me to accelerate the growth of my service-based businesses by investing in equipment, marketing, and staffing. With this support, I would expand my catering operations and mobile healthcare services to reach more clients while creating additional employment opportunities in my community. My long-term goal is to build scalable businesses that not only provide exceptional services but also serve as a blueprint for aspiring entrepreneurs who want to create their own path.
