Soulful and savory are words that can define the food that is prepared by DeShon’s Catering. DeShon’s Catering is your one stop for great food and service. BPW had an opportunity to interview Shonna Brown who is the Director of Marketing & Sales for DeShon’s Catering and Squared Marketing. Please read interview below.

BPW: What was the first mistake you made in your business? If any.
