Meet Charlene Dunbar (@suakokobetty).

She’s a Fashion Designer and CEO of Suakoko Betty.

Charlene is a Liberian designer with an immaculate eye for bold & beautiful prints. Her clothing line is a Belk Southern Designer Winner, has been featured in Essence, and can be found in boutiques like The Beehive Atlanta.

Listen to how she went from fleeing a vicious civil war, to getting a “proper” engineering degree, and finally following a path to her passion work.

Learn how she overcame negative stereotypes, the struggle that is online marketing, & learning how to sell wholesale very quickly.

All while building her family.

I was that kid in middle school drawing clothes instead of passing love notes. That was my thing.
