Sofie Hernandez, Founder and Owner of La Chingona Collab, Event Producers.

Being a part of the creative community at the West Houston Institute through the small business workshops has opened so many opportunities for me in my journey of learning how to be an entrepreneur. I’ve increased my network significantly, learned how to start up my brand, and am now a member of a supportive community that is so willing to share knowledge and experiences with each other. Words can’t express the value of the resources that I have been made aware of since I took my first workshop series last year. I can honestly say that I am someone who is now knowledgeable, confident, and capable of achieving my goal of becoming a small-business owner thanks to this program at WHI.
