Our Story

Q Inspires was founded in 2020 by Quanice Shumpert, Veny DeOliveira, and Adriana Sanders, three leaders who came together to use their skills, talents, and networks to bring value through economic empowerment for entrepreneurs. From the beginning, our mission has been rooted in giving back to our communities and equipping visionaries with the tools to grow, thrive, and leave a lasting impact.

 

In 2025 during a 40‑day corporate Passover fast, our Executive Director was completely transformed personally, renewing her mind, body, spirit and zeal for Jesus Christ. She rededicated her life and found her self with unrestrained boldness to share the Gospel empowered by the Holy Spirit.  She received a divine word of knowledge from God to shift Q Inspires into a "faith‑based business development" organization. After researching the concept, it became clear that there was nothing quite like it — confirming the uniqueness and God‑given nature of this approach. With faith as our foundation, we forged a new path forward, allowing God to shape the ins and outs of this relaunch. Today, Q Inspires stands as a one‑of‑a‑kind partner, blending spiritual guidance with strategic expertise to help entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and churches transform vision into legacy.

Quanice Shumpert

Executive Director

As Executive Director, Quanice leads Q Inspires with vision, faith, and strategy, ensuring that every initiative aligns with the organization’s mission and values. With a degree in Economics from The Ohio State University and years of international experience managing global projects for billion‑dollar corporations, she brings exceptional analytical and problem‑solving skills to her leadership. In 2020, she stepped away from corporate America to pursue her calling of empowering entrepreneurs and communities through faith‑driven business development. Quanice oversees daily operations, strategic planning, and partnerships while fostering a culture of growth and unity within the team. Her passion for teaching, critical thinking, and root‑cause issue resolution makes her a trusted guide for clients seeking clarity and transformation.
