    I started my business at such a young age that I should be at a very comfortable position once I step foot through those college doors. I am super grateful to have parents that supported me to create this world changing clothing line. I started my brand January 2021 called DSTORM APPAREL. It is a reflective 3m based clothing line which not only keeps everyone safe at night but also has them looking stylish! I’ve always been into fashion and I believe I got that from my beautiful mother who taught me bout fashion. With my clothing line and even before it I always thought to myself “in order to receive, you must give“. Therefore, with the money I earn from DSTORM , I donate to different charities monthly as well as host fundraisers and local community events with my father in the city of Paterson to give back to the people. My slogan for this brand is “shock the world”, which doesn’t mean surprise everyone by being the greatest… instead it means surprise everyone by making EVERYONE great. We at DSTORM, shock the world with positivity. Thank you.
