Where are you from?
Dallas, Texas. I spent most of my childhood in Oak Cliff and have spent most of my time in the Northeast and Southwest parts of Dallas.
How have you overcome struggles to be where you are now?
I’ve learned to be more intentional with self care and taking time to be selfish when the world is asking too much of me. So whether that’s journaling, drinking tea, taking a walk or listening to my favorite songs, those are some ways. I also just think back on my goals and remind myself if I don’t do it, it’s not gonna get done.
As a business owner, what are some obstacles you have had to overcome to get where you are at?
Being underestimated because of (at first) my lack of experience. Lots of criticism from others because I wasn’t meeting their standards. Long hours and feeling like giving up. Figuring out how to find a balance between work, life and fun.
What do you have coming up right now that you want others to know about?
I’m doing a reset on the content I’ll be posting on my blog (raesvioletwords.wordpress.com), the poetry spaces I host and my art account. I’m trying to shift from less moody, emotional content to more positive, grateful content.
Who were the most influential people in your life?
My mama, Issa Rae, Street artists/ muralists, and Toni Morrison.
