Shaina Renee is a serial entrepreneur, a woman of faith, a mother, and a true power woman. She was raised in Chicago but has lived in several countries such as Italy, China, and Paris. Shaina has two degrees one in business marketing and another in hospitality. She started modeling at the age of 17 and has worked with many modeling agencies (e.g.) Elite Model Management. When traveling the world she noticed the lack of diversity for models and brands and this is when The Model Knowledge Group (TMKG) was created. A diverse creative agency that focuses on elevating your art. At TMKG they produce events, marketing campaigns, and overall outstanding brand development. TMKG has been around since 2014 and is making a difference every day.
Shaina is also a business coach, she is the founder of SRSL Consulting which is quite different from her fashion background. However, helping small businesses gain access to funding is a true mission; the lack of these resources is one of the reasons why most businesses fail. She wanted to change the narrative for women-owned businesses because to her being financially literate is important.
We asked Shaina to give us two key principles on how to brush up on financial knowledge.
1. Read books. An excellent book is Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.
2. Learn about investment strategies and hire a mentor.
Ms. Renee’s goal is to continue to build many businesses that impact the world, so her legacy can live on forever. One of her favorite quotes is “I don’t like being put in a box, if God calls me to the mission, I know it’s the correct path.” To stay connected with Shaina Renee or any of her businesses please go to shaina-renee.com IG: instagram.com/iamshainarenee
