Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My biggest inspiration in business is my son. Against the odds, he started his own business and built something for himself. Watching his determination and courage reminded me that believing in your vision matters. His journey inspired me to pursue my own dream and build She’s So Shenita with the same resilience.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by purpose and vision. Building She’s So Shenita is about more than desserts—it’s about creating experiences that bring people joy and celebration. Every challenge reminds me that growth requires perseverance, and seeing my ideas turn into something people truly enjoy keeps me focused and inspired.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If awarded $25,000, I will expand She’s So Shenita, a luxury dessert brand creating unforgettable celebration experiences. The funds will help secure licensed kitchen space, purchase professional equipment, and invest in premium packaging and marketing. This support will allow me to scale production, grow my customer base in Las Vegas, and build a brand known for turning special moments into elevated dessert experiences.
