Jade Kelly started her very first business aged 6, when facing bullying and other challenges at her school. She decided from that point onward to help other girls like herself, creating bows and accessories that would make girls feel more confident, brave and purposeful. Jade ultimate goal is having a store in all 50 states in the US. Passionate about getting her name out there, Jade has been featured on ABC and other news channels and even hosts a weekly broadcast!
