As I continue to rebuild, I’m sharing memories that have shaped my journey. 🍋
This throwback means the most to me. It was the moment that truly pivoted my business and my outlook. Because of this, I realized that others were watching me and seeing things in me that I hadn’t yet seen in myself.
Being honored as the very first EDGE Kid Entrepreneur of the Year was the highest recognition I’ve received so far — and I’m truly thankful for it. 🙌🏾
That day was unforgettable. I was the youngest person in the room by far, yet I was able to stand on stage in front of more than 200 professionals and share my story. To be recognized alongside incredible leaders like Mayor Paul Young, Shelby County Mayor Lee Harris, and so many other business and community leaders was surreal.
I want to thank Dr. Joann Lewis-Massey and EDGE Memphis for selecting me for this honor and providing such an amazing opportunity. Thank you also to Trey Moore, who guided me that day. Most importantly, thank you to my family and everyone who has encouraged me on this journey — your support means everything.
This moment gave me confidence to dream bigger and keep going. I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me next.
