Get To Know The Maker

Where are you from/where did you grow up?

I've lived all throughout Brooklyn! I grew up in Kensington until I was 13 years old. My mom moved us to Midwood while I was in high school. In my 20's I moved to Bushwick and now I am happily living in Downtown Brooklyn!

Why did you start your business?

Hot sauce has been an obsession of mine, so I started testing out recipes to create my “perfect” hot sauce. Slowly I gave it to friends and family to try, and the response was so amazing! Before I knew it, bklynsaus was created.

How does your business connect to Brooklyn?

A portion of sales from my business goes back to Brooklyn-based organizations that help the local communities. Every day I hope the company grows more and more so that our donations can be even more sizable. Being a part of the community is the most important aspect of this business for me.
