Discuss a professional challenge and how you overcame it.
When I first started my business, I couldn’t find someone who would mentor me. All of the people I turned to for help, considered me competition rather than a mentee. I was devastated but then I met Jenell B Stewart who took me under her wing and taught me how to fly. Since meeting Jenell, I have taken all of the strategies she taught me and have accelerated my success.
What’s next for you and your brand?
In 2020 I will be working with more brands, managing digital content creators, and coaching digital content creators
