We had the good fortune of connecting with Treva Ashley Roybal and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Treva Ashley, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Some areas of the fashion industry were difficult to penetrate. The only solution I came up with was to branch out on my own.
Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
My undergraduate degree is an electrical engineering from the University of Colorado in Boulder. I grew up in Boulder. I was an engineer for a while. Then when my kids were young, I went into real estate. I still have my real estate license. But it doesn’t give me the same satisfaction as it used to. Now that my kids are out of the house, I am doing for me and trying to find my happy. The fashion industry has given me that. My happy!
Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If a friend was to come into town I would take them to red rocks for a hike and possibly a show. If Casa Bonita was opened of course we’d have to go there! 16th Street Mall, Larimer Street. Perhaps Central city and Estes Park. Maybe Idaho Springs and the Hot Springs there or to another Hot Springs. There is so much to do in Colorado! Hiking 🥾 in Boulder. Pearl Street for people watching and delicious 😋 food 🥘! Yum
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Void Studios Denver, Richard Kalisher Nue magazine, Jared Kennedy and Bill Murf photographers, and my loyal models Aiyanna, Kinsey, and Lauren. All for believing in me! As well as fashion designer and instructor Keti Vani. Really wonderful woman! They all motivated, inspired, and gave me the know with all and confidence to understand the roles I can fulfill within the industry.
