About this listen

From IT analyst to vegan ice cream entrepreneur—my twenty-year journey as a vegan has culminated in the creation of Houston's most unique frozen treat experience. When my favorite vegan ice cream shop in Austin closed its doors, I didn't just lament the loss of great desserts; I recognized an opportunity to fill a void in the market while staying true to my values.

Drawing on analytical skills honed through years in information technology, I approached building my business with methodical precision. Rather than becoming overwhelmed by the enormity of entrepreneurship, I broke the process down into small, achievable goals—a technique borrowed from agile project management. This step-by-step approach allowed me to transform a vision board dream into a tangible business serving thousands of customers.

What makes our venture special is both the product and the philosophy behind it. We've created what may be the first ice cream truck that actually makes the ice cream on-site, offering fresh, 100% vegan frozen treats that never compromise on taste or ethics. Operating as a solo entrepreneur has its challenges, but it's allowed me to maintain complete control over quality and values. The business represents a perfect alignment of personal passion with professional ambition—proof that ethical entrepreneurship can thrive when approached with patience, planning, and purpose. Join me on this journey as I document the growth of this vegan ice cream concept from local favorite to what I hope will become a worldwide brand.
