Press: Are You Favored? An Interview With Yodit Gebreyes

yodit Congratulations are in order once again for Favored owner Yodit Gebreyes who was recently interviewed by Elitedcmag.com!

Whether it’s a social or corporate event, a wedding, or designing that perfect party favor, Yodit Gebreyes of Favored has you covered. Elite DC was lucky enough to sit down and talk with her a bit about how she got into this business, her background, and what’s to come.

Having graduated from Georgetown University with her Master’s in Public Relations and Corporate Communications, I had to ask the question a lot of people want to ask entrepreneurs: do you even use your degree? Yodit immediately expressed that she’s a “big advocate for education” and that her professors were “her mentors,” and she was “able to learn not only from their triumphs, but from their failures and mistakes.”
