When the World Stopped, One Founder Kept Building
March 22, 2020. While most of America was panic-buying toilet paper and adjusting to lockdown, Sevetri Wilson was closing an $8 million Series A funding round. The timing couldn't have been worse-or perhaps more fitting. As a Black woman from rural Louisiana who built two companies from nothing, Wilson had already spent her entire career defying impossible odds. Black women receive less than 0.3% of venture capital funding. She'd grown up in a six-person household where her mother earned $26,000 annually. Yet here she was, not just surviving a pandemic, but securing millions in funding while the economy collapsed. Her story isn't about luck or perfect timing. It's about the kind of resilience that turns obstacles into stepping stones, the kind that can only be forged through years of building with nothing but determination and vision.
