How We Started
In the summer of my 20th birthday, I visited a wellness store in search of an energy supplement to combat the exhaustion from long study hours as a sleep-deprived college student. Little did I know that the seemingly ordinary women's energy vitamin I took would lead to a life-threatening allergic reaction. As I lay in a coma for a week, I realized my survival meant a greater purpose. This experience prompted extensive research into the harmful chemicals present in energy supplements. During my time at Tuskegee University, I observed a lack of healthful food and beverage options on campus, inspiring me to transform my personal research into a campus-wide plant-based catering company during my senior year. While Covid-19 disrupted those plans, it also became the catalyst for launching my latest venture in plant-based products after my virtual graduation.
