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

Hi Valery, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
Losing my job during the pandemic and having to provide for my son forced me out of my comfort zone and made me realize that I wanted to create a business that not only I would love, but so would others.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Starting your own business during COVID wasn’t easy at all ! I was very scared I actually threw up my first event , but my son kept telling me mom everything is going to be ok now I bring him to all the events he is truly my motivation

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I love the design district it’s a good place to do a little bit of everything
