Beautiful People: Janel Bailey Keen

Written by Ali Dahlson | November 4, 2024

We're back with another episode of Beautiful People of the Flower Industry! This time, Val is sitting down with Janel Bailey Keen of Vivid Expressions in Virginia. 

In their conversation, Janel shares her journey into the flower industry, highlighting the challenges as a person of color being authentically seen and taken seriously, and confronting internalized societal perceptions. She emphasizes the importance of enhancing diversity in our industry by actively creating opportunities for mutual visibility and inviting people to participate, rather than merely "setting the table."
