When Tanesha Sims-Summers and Yogi Dada met during a Minority Business Network entrepreneurial event in 2017, there was an immediate connection.

Sims-Summers, founder and CEO of Naughty But Nice Kettle Corn Co., said of Yogi Dada, “I loved everything she represented. Her vibe and energy are contagious and rather amazing. She broke out her earrings, … I saw those beautiful designs, and I knew immediately that we had to partner in some kind of way one day.”

Yogi Dada, multifaceted artist, said of Sims-Summers, “Her work ethic is crazy. That was the first thing I noticed about her, and I was immediately amazed by the magic this woman had. The ideas she has, the love for the community she has … I knew there was something special about her. Plus, I’m a sucker for kettle corn.”
