This isn't just a business for me—it's a dream that began in January 2009. My single mom took my sister and me, just eight and four years old, on our first plane ride to Washington, DC, to witness the inauguration of the first Black President of the United States. To many, watching that moment on TV would have been enough, but my mom knew how important it was for us to be there in person. She wanted us to understand that no matter where you start, there's no limit to where you can go. Your support pushes me forward as I strive to create a business that reflects the spirit of collaboration, empowerment, and the unwavering ability of dreams. As you cast your vote, chase your dreams, inspire someone’s next dream, or sit in the moment that was once a dream, remember that we stand on the shoulders of those who believed in us.

Thank you for honoring this moment in time with me, and thank you for believing in me and my dream.
