Where it started

Nikkie’s entrepreneurial foundation came from her father. He was not an entrepreneur himself, but he had the spirit of one. While working as a black car driver and later as a New York City bus driver, he pushed her to think about invention, problem solving and ownership. Whenever she saw a simple idea on television turn into a million dollar invention and said “I can do that,” he challenged her to figure out how everyday solutions become businesses.

Today that lesson has grown into a commitment to legacy and generational wealth: building lasting economic pathways so the next generation of her family has access to ownership, mobility and opportunity. Her purpose is to build and elevate businesses for long term success while advancing the community through mentorship, investment and project based development.
