Room 1021- Anna B

Hi, I’m Anna! A public school teacher from Des Moines, Iowa and the woman behind Room 1021, a teacher-owned apparel brand I started during maternity leave in 2021 with absolutely zero business experience and a whole lot of hope.

After years of building this brand after the bell rang, packing orders after bedtime, and showing up at farmers markets on weekends, I made the scariest and most exciting decision of my life. I resigned from teaching to spend a year giving Room 1021 everything I have got and seeing what it can become.

This channel is where I share all of it. The behind the scenes of running a small business. The honest reality of betting on yourself. The wins, the hard days, and everything in between.

If you have ever dreamed about doing something bigger, this one is for you. Follow along as I chase mine in real time. ✏️🩷
