This month marks @hedzole first full year Uptown on Colorado Avenue. As many #smallbusinessowners can attest, running a business is no easy task. But manifesting a childhood dream and along the way being able to achieve opportunities I couldn’t have even imagined definitely makes it all worth it. Shortly after Rep. Gabe Amo’s successful run to represent Rhode Island’s first congressional district, he reached out and asked if I’d be available for potential catering opportunities. It was my pleasure and honor to support the congressman’s hosting duties for last Wednesday’s Congressional Black Caucus Business meeting. Rep. Amo, thanks again to you and your staff for allowing me to successfully showcase our shared 🇬🇭🇺🇸 heritage. 🇬🇭 agushie, bofrot, jollof, tomato gravy, shito and waakye on the menu in a US congressional meeting ✅ . . . . . . . . #wemove #ghanatotheworld #peppadem #ghanaianamerican #hedzole #waakyewednesday #congressionalblackcaucus #cateringdmv #panafrican #liberianamerican #uptowndc #dcgoldcoast #proudlyghanaian #capitolhilldc #welcometodc

Every year that I’ve poured in to @hedzole has truly been a testament to having faith. Sometimes though, faith feels like delusion. When that does happen, I promise you every single time God has a way of showing me that He does not play about me. Knowing this fuels and propels my purpose and pursuit of representing my Ghanaian-American and Pan-African experience through food anywhere, everywhere always😉 Always grateful.
