SF:When did you start your magazine?
SU:I started the magazine in March 2010.
SF:How did you start your magazine?
SU:I was driving an idea came to mind about writing, I had a blog but didn't push it as much. So I stopped and pursued Grad School. I went browsing a website that sparked my interest, it wasn't going to be a magazine at first, it was just going to be a website. I liked the design/layout of a magazine so I decided to put it online. It's a lot of ambitious African Americans but they don't have a way to market themselves, my website is another tool to spot light them.
SF:Have you ever done any type of publication work before starting your own magazine?
SU:I have never worked for a publication before I started my magazine. I started reading and writing more before starting my own publication. I begin studying the craft because I wanted to learn more before I worked for a publication so I became an entrepreneur for my self.
