Meet Jada Boone | Home Baker & Treat Maker

We had the good fortune of connecting with Jada Boone and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jada, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
When i decided to start my business. I was in a rough spot in my life. I had just graduated college with no backup plan and I was in need of a job. I always loved baking since I was a kid I remember being in the kitchen helping my mom. Baking was originally a hobby for me something to cope with life. So I said why not just give this a try and see where it can take me. It was definitely one of the best decisions of my life.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Well, I’m a self taught baker & treat maker. I never went to school or a class to learn the things that I do. I would definitely say it’s been a hard journey to get to where I am now. I’m not going to say I’m at a place where I want to be in my professional career but I’m making progress that i am very proud of. I did graduate college from Valdosta State University in May 2022 and it was a really hard & weird transition having to come back home and try to make something of myself. I originally felt like a failure because I didn’t get a job in my field after graduating. But then i came to terms with it and realized that God has another plan for me. I would say that’s how I overcame anything that was thrown at me just being in tune with god and having that relationship with him and overall trusting him. I would say what sets me apart from others is I know that I’m young and it’s so much that I can learn so that I can be great and I’m willing to learn anything to be able to better me professionally.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Yes, Absolutely! I would first like to thank God for just giving me the talent to be self taught. Secondly my family, friends, and coworkers for just pushing me, listening to my ideas, providing feedback & always supporting me in every aspect. Special shoutout to my parents for allowing me to just do what makes me the happiest and always supporting my dreams even the crazy ones.
