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

Hi Robert, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
Business itself is a lot of hard work and dedication toward anything that you are building. You are embracing your own brand and trend while building an empire of your own for the world to enjoy. The first step is to “think” about what it is you are launching into and stick it. You may a lot of creatives come across with other ideas but as long as you make that one desire stick out first it will benefit you to start! Starting for me in the graphics world was under pressure because the game of it all was so high! Surrounded with multiple talented team players of the design and arts industry I yet pushed since 2013.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I try to bring a sense of life to everything that I do in art and design. From flyers, to commercial ads and just everything that inspires me to go and move forward in all that I do. I have done ads for Starbucks, KERA, tributes to various organizations and denominations. I am also a freelance editor of my own newsletter under my publishing company, R-Now Media and a podcaster of THE JORDAN PRESS! Which brings my designs to life out on air. I began this work of mines in 2013.

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?
Oh man! When you talk about the city of Dallas you’re mentioning a CITY! I love the AT&T plaza it’s so relaxing through the day and even more better with networking with all the people that comes in and out the parks. I also love white rock lake area where you can just breath and let all your worries out and just enjoy the walks and talks. We’re not going even bring up FOOD!!! I love the food here in my city there’s nothing like it, especially the best breakfast places!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to dedicate this shoutout to my mother. A single parent home with 5 children over the years was tough but she did it! She raised up in the fear of God and all knowledge to become whatever it is we would like to become or gain in life. Also I echo my shoutout to every single person that support and purchase business from R-Now Media! It is because of you that I am even doing this thing called small business for the last 9 years. Lastly, I dedicate this in the memory of my grandparents who would have been very proud of me at this moment.
