Iro Summers hasn't added a story.
Marissa D.L. Kendrick ( pictured above wearing her own work) is a Columbia College university student/entrepreneurial powerhouse who is seeking to catapault her 4 year old "Empowering Wearable Art" company, Deleay Lashay (http://deleaylashay.com/) into 2015 with a bang! She is also my first small business client for my developing firm- Good Treasure Marketing and Development or "GTMD". ( website update pending)
In the past few years, Marissa's creative energy, incredible talent, inner beauty and passion for Deleay Lashay has opened doors of opportunity and recognition for her brand from New York City to Milan, Italy. In fact, Deleay Lashay has garnered attention from industry heavyweights like Kenneth Cole and Santino Rice of "Project Runway". Additionally, just a few days ago, my work with Marissa allowed her to really shine at DC Fashion week and may get her designs featured on the FOX network hit show "Empire". Marissa and I truly make a great team!
Currently, Marissa's company is based in Chicago, however her 2015 vision is to share her story and empowering custom jewelry to a broader clientele. She plans to expand to D.C. first, then maybe New York, L.A. or hopefully your hometown soon!
Marissa and I just got a big Louisiana style boost by getting an invitation to the 2015 Essence Fest. http://www.essence.com/festival/#&panel1-1
Her ability to market at this year's Essence Festival as a vendor designer will SKYROCKET her business! We were able to secure your invitation ( for a mere $1500:), but now we need to get her there. Will you help her with her travel expenses to make this amazing dream become a July 2015 reality?
