My entrepreneurship journey really began with my Bodybuilding journey.
I was challenged to step out of my comfort zone to pursue a passion, and competing on stage showed me that anything is possible through consistent effort! With newfound confidence, I ventured into my own entrepreneurial pursuits in 2017!
I am a Business Development and Innovation Partnerships professional, health and wellness advocate and 2x Founder. I’ve accomplished this via Social Impact Fashion Startup, LookLab, and my Personal Development Events. I also began to create original content (Food Photography) with my work published in 2017 and 2018.
This is a collection of blog posts that cover some of my business ventures and how to cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset!
I have access to many informative and inspirational events in San Francisco and will share some updates in these posts.
