I moved to America from Ukraine after the birth of three children. Before that, I had my own Architectural company for about 15 years. For a number of circumstances, I decided not to continue working in the architectural business and began to think about what I would like to do that would be interesting for me. I have organized events for myself and my children multiple times when you have three kids. You organize at least three birthdays a year. Also, I used to help my friends with their parties and events. Read more>>

First and foremost, I most definitely have to give my foundation credit to my dad. My father paints houses and has been since before I was born [I’m 25]. He would take me with him to the different places he’d be working and I’d assist him where needed. His influence on the beauty of colors and mixing and allowing me to be creative is what started it all. He’d tell me all the time when I would be painting with him, that he saw that I was a natural and really into painting and the world could be my canvas. Read more>>

I started my photography obsession in 2009, which was an idea that came from my MySpace layouts that I would graphically design in Photoshop. I would custom make websites that would need me to use images for certain ones, and out of that I started taking photos. I began with nature, then family, and eventually my family & friends. Back in 2005-2007, the research of photography was still a bit ancient, and if you didn’t go to school for it, you learned it all on your own. Read more>>

Alexus Greene
Back in 2012, I was over to a friend’s house having girl time as she prepared dinner. She asked if I could help her frost the cupcakes she had baked and that’s where my interest in treat making began. From there, I started out having weekly bake sales offering cupcakes, cookies, etc., and as time when on, I was determined to become a one stop shop. I now offer custom cakes, cupcakes, candy apples, and any other treat you can think of when imagining a dessert party at any event. Read more>>

As a 29-year-old Wife & Mommy to a baby boy, if you would have told me five years ago that I would become a “Social Media Influencer”, I most definitely would have thought you were lying. This journey started July 25, 2018, when I decided to do what is called “The Big Chop”, which basically is cutting off all of my chemically processed ends. Read more>>
