Who TF is YanSlay?
It’s time we start living our best lives.
Humanitarian
YanSlay has always held being of service to others at the forefront of her life. From saving earth worms on the side walk in Kindergarten to volunteering at a food bank in college to working at a non profit for underserved low income high school students currently. She has always put her mission of spreading love and light energy to the community first.
YanSlay enjoys working with the youth and helping underserved students get into college for free because she is a first generation graduate. Coming from a split and blended family of young parents life was interesting. Thankfully her parents made sure the good outweighed the bad. However, that is not to say that there weren’t challenges. As a middle schooler she would take two buses and a train to attend a performing arts school a few cities over. This is a testament to her strength and commitment to her goal. YanSlay has always been head strong and persistent in the pursuit of her dreams.
Now she uses her bull like energy to give back to her local community through working with low income high school students and through her art. She continues to pursue and grow as a brand and more importantly as a change agent in society.
Legacy Builder
We are a family owned and operated business. YanSlay is the lead of course but two of her younger siblings help keep the ship going! Breaking generational curses is a huge part of why we are in business and that starts at home. Currently her younger sister in high school operates the Etsy shop, helps with product development, assists in grant competitions/ applications, attends pop up shops, and more. The youngest of the tribe YanSlay’s brother is in middle school and helps with brand awareness. He is the reason we create NFTs. At YanSlay Official we believe young people have the best ideas and we intend to do whatever we can to support them.
So as you can see we really are a small family shop. We are looking to build a legacy that generations and communities can benefit from.
Earth Lover
YanSlay Official is pro EARTH and 100% with the eco friendly vibe!
YanSlay even carries a water filtration water bottle to cut down on plastic! All jokes aside we strive to ensure that most of the goods we produce are sustainably sourced. We love to go thrifting at local consignment shops and encourage our extended family to select thrifted options with a discount incentive on custom orders. We also work with vendors who use environmentally friendly manufacturing practices. We are not 100% eco friendly yet but we get closer and closer everyday!
Fun fact – YanSlay feeds the birds in her yard. Find the narrated videos on YouTube
Creative
YanSlay thrives in creative environments and believes it is the source of eternal youth. Having a youthful spirit allows her to easily connect with people of all walks of life – making her content fun and easy to digest. Being an artist and performer at heart YanSlay always seeks to remind people that there are many ways to live well. Life is not one size fits all.
Sure we can learn from one another but ultimately we are all unique and we all have our own unique journey.
Having a creative spirit allows YanSlay to see solutions and opportunities where others may see problems and headaches. From revitalizing old worn out thrift store furniture to providing guidance on everyday life situations to assisting clients in growing their businesses YanSlay always discovers a creative way to save the day!
Expressionist
Using her life experiences and natural creative ability YanSlay creates one of a kind art. She is known to paint on anything she can get her hands on from traditional canvas to jean jackets. If you ask she will always say painting and customizing denim jackets is her most favorite thing! But anything she can “GO CRAZY” on is also a favorite. Outside of creating tangible wearable art she also uses her natural gif of gab to create uplifting content on YouTube. She believes the key to life is spreading love, being of service to others, and purposefully prioritizing positivity/ self care. You will find all that and more on her YouTube channel.
