About Quinton
Heyy I'm Quinton, I go by Que (like the letter Q) for short, and I'm from NC. I am a stealth black trans man, which is why my photos are AI generated, but that doesn't mean I want to step away from my community. The idea of Self Made Bros came to me on a phone call while working my delivery job. I'm an avid social media scroller and what I saw online was too many black transmasculine and black trans men looking for others, either near them, similar to them, or just people to follow online. I thought about all the organizations or social media pages that are no longer active or aren't as active anymore and I became sad. We as black trans men, and as black transmasculine individuals, should have a space where if you point someone to it, you know someone will pick up the phone; insert Self Made Bros. I choose someone, who already has a business up and going, to start this journey with me and I could not be happier.
About Alex
Yerrrr, I'm Alexander Williams, a NYC enthusiast with a mission for positive vibes! I love sports (I mean ball is life right?), reading, video games, movies, music (I sang a lil summin summin), and cooking (plant based papi). This project? It's all about shaking up the game and making a difference. Imagine a space where everyone's story matters – that's the goal here. Born and bred on the lively streets of Harlem, this venture is my way of bringing that vibrant energy into the mix. No stuffy suits here, just a laid-back journey into representation and diversity. It's not a business; it's a chill vibe with a purpose. So, if you're up for a casual ride into making the world a bit more inclusive, join me! Let's mix business with a whole lot of good vibes.
