Daughters of Ethiopian immigrant twin sisters, who owned the legendary jazz club, Twins Jazz in Washington, DC, the HellaBlack founders understand the importance of legacy. Growing up in a household of passionate female entrepreneurs ignited their relentless pursuit to empower other entrepreneurs to ultimately strengthen Black families. "I want companies, families, and organizations to thrive in our community and produce generational wealth," says HellaBlack founder, Love-Leigh Trimiew.
