Mitchell is also the founder of LittySneaks, a successful brand in the sneaker reselling sector. He is also a celebrated digital influencer helping create content for his brand and other companies. Mitchell has had an innate passion for the business world from a young age. Growing up surrounded by entrepreneurial parents significantly influenced him to drive his passion into a career path. As a result, he started practicing business as early as middle school. Mitchell found himself in the shoe world, jumping on the sneaker craze. A born entrepreneur, Mitchell easily mastered the sector’s happenings, distinguishing himself from the rest. This ensured he could obtain sneakers upon their release, and he has never looked back. Mitchell has hit numerous other career highlights, including becoming a registered UAV pilot and being asked to be on Sole Collector's Full Size Run at 13. He has also been contacted by different brands, even legacy brands, like Nivea Skin Care, who want him to either produce content or post their products. Mitchell also takes pride in being accepted at The George Washington University's School of Business and a high honors student with straight As at school. His company, LittySneaks, has also obtained a US trademark, a significant milestone for the entrepreneur. Mitchell's most significant challenge is recognizing when it's time to leave a business and move on to another venture when the market changes and runs out of steam. This is evident throughout his entrepreneurial career, where he has transitioned from one business to another. Selling sneakers was one of the early ventures that he dropped to focus on streetwear like Supreme; still amassing a valuable personal sneaker collection. Making the transition wasn't easy for Mitchell since he had a great love for sneakers, but he finally made a move to continue evolving in business. To him, being an entrepreneur can take many different shapes according to voids in the market, trends, and other essential factors, hence the need to be super dynamic. With eyes locked on achieving more success, Mitchell’s advice to others is never to give up. Mitchell adds that when you believe in something, you need to stick to your vision, have laser focus, and work nonstop to achieve your goals. There is nothing more important than hard work, accomplishing tasks, and ultimately, the proof is in the results. Mitchell is also focusing on his education with a dream to land an internship opportunity with an innovative organization. The goal is to enrich his education and industry know-how to empower himself with knowledge and experience for his future business endeavors. At present, Mitchell is pursuing technology startups. He envisions himself regularly evaluating other people's business opportunities as people reach out to him and create his own empire. Mitchell is also dedicated to investing time into continuing to creating unique content and setting the foundation for a future startup. The goal is to grow and scale his businesses and hopefully leave a positive mark in the world.
