My heart is full of gratitude. As a black woman and immigrant, I came to this country without any idea about my future as professional. I found my own way to bring my roots and share them with my new country. It’s a huge accomplishment. Thank You Matchstick Lab for this opportunity. Thank you for thinking of small business.
