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

Hi Richele, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I always wanted to start a business, but due to school and my full time job, I always excused myself as “I don’t have time”. After being in quarantine I started thinking about Ideas for my business, so I concluded that I like to do things with my hands so this project was the perfect fit for me because I could create designs on my strawberries and treats. January 2021, it became reality, and I started my small business locally in Miami, Florida where friends and people supported me by buying my treats for special occasions.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
What I think sets me apart from others in my positive ways of thinking that I would get done what I visualize and what I dream. I am excited that I started this business because I can create numerous designs in my treats, and I am proud of myself because I get good feedbacks from my clients and that encourages me to continue doing what I do. Having a business is not easy, of course, some challenges make myself prof that I can solve a problem by creating new solutions. I have learned that if you don’t try, you would never know if you could. I would like people to know about my brand and story that this small business is made with love to make your moment special and that if you ever get an idea just do it and try.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I live in Miami, and if my friend was visiting the area I would take them first to an Ice cream Place called “AZUCAR” in little Havana .

Then I would take her to a walk in Hollywood Beach Boulevard because they have restaurants with live music
.
For the end of the afternoon , it would be magic to visit Key Biscayne bridge and watch the sunset .

And, I would like to my friend sees the city at Night like Brickell and Eat in a restaurant that I like called ” Crazy about you because they have a nice spot view to the sea.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Since I was a child my parents and family always supported my ideas, and always encouraged me to become a better person in the present and the future. They are part of all my journey for this business and other ideas in the past. Also, I had met people across my life that they give me examples of superation everyday and the power to follow my dreams.
