What this episode covers

Amanda Pizarro is the co-founder of The Salty Donut. After traveling the country, researching craft donuts, Amanda and her husband formulated a plan to open a shop of their own in Miami, seeing an opportunity in its culinary landscape.

Amanda has since earned herself a spot on Forbes 30 under 30, and numerous other awards and achievements. Amanda and her team are now leading the company into much bigger and better things as they continue to grow with 5 shops nationwide.
