Our readers would love to get to know you more Aashaunte. Tell us about yourself, what is unique about you, your brand or the services you offer?

I am an only child raised by a single mother with minimal resources to help make myself successful. My mother decided it was best for me to be built in the county school system away from our family members who lived in the city school system. This began my journey of not only being accepted but how to take over. I consider myself a chameleon that can thrive in any atmosphere and that attribute has allowed me to become successful in today’s world.

Aashaunte, what are your passion and aspiration in life? How did you start as an Influencer?

My aspiration in life is to influence people positively. My goal is to reach a platform where I can give back to people and highlight diversity in a favourable light.

Who is your inspiration in life Aashaunte? How do you stay inspired as Influencer?

My Mother raised me all by herself with the aspirations that I would “be somebody”.

We all make mistakes Aashaunte; we wish we could take back. What was the error you made in the past that you want to you can bring back?
In high school, I committed as a Jr to a D1 school (The Univerisity of Tennessee). With no real guidance on how to stay focused and not let outside influences affect the goals I took advantage of the special treatment and make my grades plummet. By the time I graduated with a 1.9 I was unable to attend. I later reconciled my career by going to an NAIA college to play football and graduate with a Business Management Degree

Aashaunte, How do you describe yourself regarding working with clients?

I am hardworking, and I pay attention to detail. My entire career is built on relationships so I will grow and protect those relationships to the best of my ability.

Please tell us Aashaunte, how do you prioritise work, social life, friends, and family?

I have built a network by being honest and not overcommitting myself. Under promise and Over deliver.

Aashaunte , please give us an example of a time when you were able to persuade someone to see things your way at work successfully.
I work with physicians in medication management. So every day I persuade physicians on the importance of teaching the patient's genetic makeup before prescribing medications.

Aashaunte, please tell us about your proudest professional accomplishment as an Influencer.
I believe the best is yet to come!

Aashaunte, please give us an example of a time you were able to be creative with your work. What was exciting or challenging about it?
I was able to create a dinner program with a well known Genetic scientist for 100 + physicians on Pharmacogenetic testing helping impact the lives of future patients
