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

Hi Nallely, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I started my business with a partner. We both decided to go our separate ways and it was a great de ion for both us.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I am a passionate entrepreneur on a mission to provide and share my unique gift with my clients.. Growing up, I realized that I didn’t want to conform to the conventional lifestyle i saw around me. I knew that there was something more waiting for me beyond the boundaries of my comfort zone. Despite the fear and judgement and societal norms, I decided to break free and chase my dreams. Today after nearly eight years in business, I am working on expanding my service offering I have been doing Sugaring hair removal since I started my business, and I recently added on brown Lamination + brow wax and tint. I plan to continue to grow business. My goal for the year includes launching training courses to empower more women to embark on their entrepreneurial journeys. Challenges ? Life is not without challenges, and I faced my share of obstacles, Particularly as a DACA recipient. The lack of access to a higher education was a hurdle I had to navigate. Nevertheless my entrepreneurial spirit, combined with the opportunities DACA provided, propelled towards my business dreams. Being a non- U.S . citizen certainly presented challenges.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I am a mother of three babies two toddlers and 5 month old. I normally look for kid friendly activities, I love going to soft play areas my favorite is Mini playtime , and we rock the spectrum we always have so much fun there,after that we follow along with some ice cream at places like creamistri. We love Ramen our top fav is definitely K pop.
