I haven’t created recipe content yet, but I’m very comfortable making short-form food videos and aesthetic step-by-step posts. Here is an example of the style of recipe content I make (not a published link): Smoothie Bowl Recipe – Instagram-Style Post Base: frozen blueberries, banana, and Greek yogurt Mix-ins: chia seeds + honey Toppings: granola, coconut flakes, fresh strawberries Aesthetic shot: overhead photo + quick 6-second video showing the pour If you’d like a specific link, I can create a recipe video or post on the spot!

Honestly, what interests me about Painterland Sisters is how real it feels. You can tell two sisters built this brand with so much love and personality. The yogurt tastes amazing, but what really stands out to me is how they highlight their family farm, sustainable practices, and being a women-led brand. It makes the product feel special, not just another thing on the shelf. I love brands that have a story, especially ones founded by strong women, and Painterland Sisters does that so well. Their vibe feels wholesome, fun, and trustworthy all at the same time — exactly the kind of brand I’d love to represent.

To make Saint James Tea a recognizable and loved brand on my campus, I would focus on creating consistent, positive, and memorable touchpoints for students. My approach would combine in-person visibility, strategic partnerships, and social media storytelling. On campus, I would host “Sip & Study” tables during busy times at Fondren Library, surprise “Tea Drop” giveaways before exams, and pop-ups at high-energy spots like Dallas Hall Lawn. I’d collaborate with organizations I’m involved in—Alpha Phi Omega, Theta Tau, Phi Chi Theta, Women in Business, Community Ambassadors, SMU Look, and SMU Style—to feature Saint James at events ranging from service projects to networking mixers to engineering workshops. By integrating the tea into moments students already love, the brand becomes part of their routine instead of just another drink. On social media, I’d create aesthetic content that fits the SMU vibe: “day in the life” reels, tea restocks, flavor taste tests, and campus lifestyle videos. I’d encourage students to tag and share, using giveaways and micro-challenges to boost engagement. My goal is for Saint James Tea to be the drink everyone recognizes, talks about, and brings to class without even thinking—because it’s tied to community, good energy, and the SMU experience.
