Hey, we know her

Earlier today, we published a piece on a new mural coming to DC's Union Market that features five Black women founders: Brittany Young, Dawn Myers, Naza Shelley, Anika Hobbs and Shelly Omilàdè Bell.

 

The mural, created via a partnership between Nike and Black Girl Ventures, hopes to honor the strong women of DC's startup scene and inspire future founders. But you might have a spotted a familiar name in that list: Yep, Young is the founder of Baltimore dirt bike x STEM programB-360.

 

Check out the story of the mural here.
