The Owner and Creator
"This business started as a little girl with a dream." From a young age, our owner, Shaye, has aspired to own her own business and has pushed barriers to reach her goal. Tou Shaye's over the years has blossomed from a hobby to a business in 2021.
Shaye is the sole creator and designer behind Tou Shaye's and all that it entails. While she may ask for help from her trusty tail wagging assistants for motivational support, the work is all hers.
Shaye holds three degrees: a bachelors degree in Digital Art and Media, a masters degree in Visual Arts and Digital Communication, and a masters of fine arts for Graphic Design.
Outside of the business, Shaye is a professor, a graphic designer, a momma, a daughter, a sister, and a friend. She has a zealous love for life, family, and helping others to pursue their dreams.

Support System
Shaye is forever thankful for her support system- her family. Her family has pushed her to create this business and do what she loves. Without them, there would be no business and there would have never been a little girl with a dream.
