Watch: Naomi Winston talks innovation and art on ‘Between Two Founders’

In the eighth episode of “Between Two Founders,” the video series featuring conversations with local startup founders from in and around Baltimore, host Sean Sutherland (dressed up for Halloween!) and cohost Leon Stanford chat with Naomi Winston. Her extensive and varied resume includes such titles as: founder of social justice-minded publishing house Revolutionary Hearts Industries (through which she has put out coloring books aimed at children of color), marketing and communications analyst for UpSurge Baltimore, recent Baltimore transplant, former Venture for America fellow and potential future presidential candidate.

“For anyone that’s been to an Equitech Tuesday happy hour, you’ve experienced Naomi’s infectious energy,” said Sutherland of the latest episode’s guest. “She hasn’t been a part of this community that long but it’s obvious where her heart is and just how much she’ll be able to contribute to Baltimore. We’re lucky to have her and lucky to show off the great work her budding ’empire’ is already doing.”
