About

Allena Staples, Owner

I was born in Hartford, Connecticut to two hard-working Jamaican immigrants. My parents taught me to judge people by their character and their character alone, the value of hard work, and how important it is to invest in yourself and your talents. I graduated from Vanderbilt University in 2017 but had already spent several years working with Small Business Owners - hardworking people who were determined to make something for themselves. I’ve always known that ASC was my dream - and it amazes me everyday that it’s real! I have over 10 years of hands-on experience with small business, over 10 years graphic and web design experience, and a real passion for aesthetic design and the simple magic of telling a true story.

Anya Rahmoune, Consultant

I was born and raised in Algiers, Algeria, and left for Paris when I was 18 to study in Sorbonne Université and then EDHEC Business School. And what an adventure it was, to leave home and change countries so young! That’s when I knew that if I could do this, I could do everything and take on everything. Every customer and small business owner I have encountered share this mindset and this drive to succeed, which is definitely what I love most about this job and this community. I draw my graphic and writing inspiration from my love for arts, literature and natural landscapes. Thank God Paris is the perfect city for all that!
