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

Hi Sharnesa, how does your business help the community?
I believe my business helps the community because I’m able to show others who look like me that the sky is limit. I can do what I love and serve with no boundaries attached. That’s very important to me being about to serve at any event and show case me and bring value to my community.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
KateringIIyou is a universal name. What sets me apart from others is my passion and creativity. When I have a customer ask me to create them a cake for example I not only take in consideration their wants I also customize the cake for their personality. I kinda go above and beyond. I try and make sure it’s one of a kind. Starting my business was not easy at all. Taking consideration that I never attended schooling for this craft and trying to make the world see my vision , and accepting it as much as I have. Not to mention funding. Everything has came directly from my house hold nothing has been donated, funded. This has taught me meaning of grinding, work hard at what I stand for. Not waiting on handouts. I hope the world will know KateringIIyou is not just a name it’s a daily obligation to serve the next . Rather by making someone smile, providing a service just simply catering to someone.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Well being that I’m a foodie lol our itinerary would definitely be based off that. I’m from Fort Worth but live close to Dallas so I would take them to my Downtown area to show the country side . Maybe stop at stock yard . Feed the animals. There is this one spot called Babe’s it like a family dinning experience Ole school . One day go to this dope spot outside of Dallas called Pangea in Garland its a whole vibe. We would also hit up food trucks especially Street tacos. Basically they should be prepared to leave diets at the door lol.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would like to thank my family without them I don’t know how I could have done this. Especially my husband he has seen my good and bad days . Gave me many pep talks when I wanted give up, he is my back bone. Last but not least by any means God . He created this gift for me , designed it in that he gets all the credit.
