Z’s Story

Everyone’s Talking About Z
Her creativity, business sense, and customer service along with a tremendous attitude are what sets her apart in her own business.
Z is an incredible artist. Her characters are whimsical and 100% original. She uses the gifts and talents she has discovered to create her future with creativity.
I have had the honor of seeing Z flourish as a talented artist and successful entrepreneur. She is a shining example of what it looks like to when you are determined to utilize the gifts that God has given you, no matter what form you receive them.
She’s smart, confident, and always shows up with kindness and strength. Z cares deeply about people and is the kind of person who lifts others up just by being herself. She’s a natural leader, a great listener, and I’m so lucky that she is a part of my life.
I love getting to be part of Chicago’s Ducky Derby every August. I make a beeline for one of favorites…the lovely Ms. Z who was killlllling it at her jewelry and hat booth. Every item handcrafted by Ms. Z herself.
