Samari Evans came straight out of Winston-Salem State University with a chemistry degree and little experience in lab settings. Not long after, while starting what was then a small side business, she was offered, by the doctor she'd been working part-time for, a full-time position to run his online store at his private practice. This position would help to propel her to eventually being able to leave the doctors office and work full-time for herself as a certified chemist and making her own products.
