About Your Cool Ninang

 

Your Cool Ninang is founded by Sarah C, a Manila-raised, Dallas-based creative.

Sarah's entrepreneurial spirit goes all the way back to her childhood. During the summers, she would sell ice candy in her neighborhood in an effort to save up money while providing cool treats to beat that Manila heat. All throughout middle school and high school, Sarah had always sold handmade goods including "emo girl bows, gamer-themed clay charms, custom canvas paintings, jewelry, even cookies! Fun fact, Sarah was able to buy her own iPhone at 17 because of this side hustle. Sarah obtained her business degree in 2023 and graduated Magna Cum Laude.

The Your Cool Ninang banner would say "established 2020" despite the brand only went live in 2023 because this shop used to be a Covid-related shop called "Film Ghosty", where Sarah sold handmade masks, quirky shirts, and posted feel-good comics and videos in an effort to provide some comic relief in such hard times.

Your Cool Ninang was only intended to be an online store, but by the power of community, Sarah ended up being a frequent booth vendor for Asian and Filipino events all over Dallas Fort-Worth, and recently participated in Asian market events in Austin, Texas and Las Vegas, Nevada. Hopefully, all over the world!

Sarah is passionate about donating her time and talents to various Filipino/Asian communities such as being the Cultural Director for Samahan and Subtle Filipino Traits, being a part of the Marketing Team of Dallas' very own PACE (Pilipino American Community Endeavor), and being a member of DAAARTClub (Dallas Asian American Art Club).

In her free time, Sarah enjoys playing the drums, video games, watching Formula 1 (Scuderia Ferrari), going to car shows, traveling, taking pictures and videos (which can be found on DallasPinay).
