How did growing up in Chicago impact your hustle and drive? Can you share a little about the entrepreneurial scene in Chicago?

Dealing with everyday challenges in Chicago, I had to develop a tough exterior when it comes to handling criticism Not everyone will appreciate what you do or how you do it, but its crucial to maintain the inner drive that keeps you going The entrepreneurial scene in Chicago can be challenging, as individuals may discourage your success or withhold information on business progression. That’s why I took it upon myself to conduct thorough research and network with other business owners who generously share their knowledge and experiences with me Additionally, having a support system that includes God, my mother, sister, brothers, grandfather, boyfriend, mentor, and numerous loved ones has enabled me to overcome any obstacles that have come my way
