Comments on the Military and Business Ownership The military has given me the skills and training in being an entrepreneur. I've learned that with discipline, grace, tenacity and patience you can achieve anything your heart desires. With hard work you can reap the benefits. Nadean Barton

My husband and I moved to Jacksonville in 2019. He's retired USAF and I'm a USAF Veteran. My military career was cut short due to disabilities but that hasn't stopped my dedication to education & service. Since my separation in 2006, I have earned a degree in Electronics Engineering. I am currently the Chief of Philanthropic Development for Alpha Gamma Xi Military Sorority, Inc. Alpha Gamma Xi Military Sorority, Inc. (AGXi) is an international organization that was founded by military women, for military women. Through membership in this phenomenal sorority, I am able to continue my philanthropic giving on a grander scale for the military community and also bask in the military sisterhood. I am also the Chief Information Officer for Social Butterflies Foundation, a nonprofit that focuses on aiding Lupus & Fibromyalgia survivors. Alongside my charitable contributions to my local and veteran communities, I am also the Chief Visionary/Owner of B. Ayesha Inc. A corporation that features an online boutique (The BAye Hive Boutique), blog (The BAye Hive Blog), group (The BAye Hive Tribe), design (Bina Banks Designs) & BLACK F.L.Y. (Empowerment Brand). I am also a Certified Resiliency and Life Direction Coach for chronically ill women (BAye Coaching Alliance). I'm also currently a Doctoral Candidate with a focus in Metaphysical Psychology. I'm one of those people that have no clue what they want to be when they grow up (even though I'm 43). I had a stroke in 2007 and also suffer from several other chronic invisible illnesses. Going through so much, I just do what makes me happy. Comments on the Military and Business Ownership My military service has ingrained in me a strong work ethic. This has prepared me for the grind and multitasking that being an entrepreneur entails. As an Aircraft mechanic, I learned to pay great attention to detail. This shines through in the products that I sale as well as the way I prepare these items for shipment. Always having to be mission ready has prepared me to be able to answer questions or do things at short notice without missing a beat. Serving others is now a part of my DNA.
