Reggie’s love for baking began when he joined his father in providing food for the homeless. As he got older, he launched ‘Lil Reggie Cookies’ to raise funds for the homeless.

The 18-year-old entrepreneur, who has held an LLC since age 15 and operates from a commercial kitchen, owes his progress to networking. This led to a partnership with Ian Burris, owner of The Dankery Restaurant.

“His hard work will pay off,” Burris said confidently.
