Meet Rafa Respect O.rey | Writer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Rafa Respect O.rey and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Rafa Respect, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
Well, I answer you from the heart of an immigrant that I am, someone who decided to legally enter this country at the age of 27 with the idea of ​​seeking a better future.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I am convinced that all human beings are full of talents that we do not know, in my case I started very early in my native country, Colombia. Taking classes in Theater and acting, also listening to Facundo Cabral and all the world-class characters that he mentioned in his presentations as a playwright.
that is how I ended up writing, motivated to bring a little awakening to love and respect for others and each one of us.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Sharing the cosmopolitan city of Atlanta and its surroundings for seven years now.
I really enjoy the state of Georgia in each of its seasons.
We could start by having breakfast in Alpharetta, then visit the aquarium in downtown Atlanta, each day something different,
museums, shows etc.
We could have lunch in the excellent restaurants in Buckhead, then walk through downtown Roswell and head out to Duluth to enjoy, in my case (best friends from South Korea coming from Nashville TN), to enjoy restaurants and a drink of soju.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Absolutely! Infinite gratitude to the team at @ita_Editorial and its Founder @Alfred.cst who gave me my first opportunity.
