We continue our series of interviews with Black founders in partnership with 100Knoxville. Today, we talk with Evetty Janese, founder of Advancing Lives LLC which focuses on diversity, equity, and inclusion in schools and districts. She's also a member of the Knox County School Board representing District 1. We discuss starting a business a month after the COVID-19 shutdown started, determining if a client is a good fit to work with, and the importance of being vulnerable and honest with yourself and others.
