Did you always want to become an Entrepreneur?
No, I was taught to go to school, get a good education and then I get a “Good” job. I did that for a while but I didn’t feel like I was fulfilling my true purpose. I always felt like I was being held back , that there was something more I was supposed to be doing. I walked away from that good job and I’m now doing the best job!
What is your biggest challenge to date?
My biggest challenge has been putting the reins of my business in the hands of my team. Due to sudden illness, I’m currently out of the island and will be indefinitely. The arrangement certainly has its challenges but it is very doable. Some days are crazy but we get it done. I have gained a whole bunch of patience and had to develop a higher level of trust in others. I’m extremely grateful for my team, my mom Cheryl, Danielle and my hardworking therapists who keep things together in my absence.
What advice would you give a budding Entrepreneur?
Entrepreneurship will be one of the hardest things you do in life but it will also be the most rewarding. The feeling of knowing you created something, to watch it grow, to overcome challenges and see yourself reach the next level, is a pretty awesome feeling.
The only person you need to believe in you is yourself. Do your research, make plans and write lots of to do lists. If you fall 10 times, get up 11. Remember to celebrate your small victories. People think that you have to have a ton of money to start a business, you really don’t, I definitely did not .The key is planning and a whole lot of patience. Giving up is not an option, you can do this and most importantly Pray through the process!
Name 1 thing that your clients may not know about you.
I’m a singer, classical, the higher the note the better for me lol.
