Business Plan
I plan to use strategic advertising and vendor opportunities to grow my websites and personal brand. I want to create a book with pictures and stories about African Americans who have contributed to Oklahoma City. I am a journalist, author (5 self-published works), and filmmaker (20 films including series, talk shows, short, and feature length films. I won the 2023 Great Plains Journalism Award for Magazine Lifestyle Writing. I am already curating the African American Experience in Oklahoma City.

Self Identified Competition
Arcadia Publishing has published books detailing the African American experience. I believe their last work on the topic was published in 2018. There are African American designers in Oklahoma City but there isn't a store that sells multiple designers' items simultaneously. I'm unbiased. I want to document the history of the 1960s-2023 before the history tellers have passed on. I want Oklahoma to know their full history and be proud. This hasn't been done and I don't know if anyone else has real interest in doing it.
