I opened Mom’s Fresh Juice in the spring of 2014 after being inspired by my mother’s [successful] cancer battle, in which she used daily, fresh juices to combat symptoms and side effects of treatment. What started as a six-juice operation out of my tiny apartment kitchen blossomed into a 9-year journey of sharing the health with my community. Over the years, I opened 3 locations and developed over 65 juice recipes, not to mention all the food recipes!

This was the most rewarding and educational experience of my life. [So far…]

I was honored with the 2019 Millennial Entrepreneur of the Year Award by the U.S. Small Business Administration.

Tasks: Top-to-bottom business tasks, from starting a business to closing it and everything that happens in between. — Additionally: recipe development, creative direction, photography, social media management, interior design, light handiwork, customer service/relations, etc.

Along with all that, I also built and maintained our websites and did all the daily purchasing and deliveries.
