We had the good fortune of connecting with Ayanna XTRA Lopez and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ayanna XTRA, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
Here at Xi Delta Nu or purpose is to

To build, uplift, and excel as an ensemble to pour back into our community to develop a thriving village.

Xi Delta Nu is a community service-based Sorority organization founded by two exceptional women in order to establish a sisterhood that can withstand eternity. Our Founders wanted to develop a safe space for women to grow, change, and develop themselves and the communities around them.

Xi Delta Nu is a sorority organization that serves to create a front of innovative women who are looking to uplift, love, support, and enhance one another.

Our purpose is to unite women of different races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and religions. We move with the purpose to enhance ourselves, and our communities and spread our message of unity nationwide.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Xi Delta Nu strives to leave behind everlasting change. We want to leave behind a legacy of love, drive, ambition, and women’s empowerment. We want to see the future generation of women become the best versions of themselves with a supportive group behind them. We want to see inclusion, diversion, innovation, and friendship.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
When in HTX if you have a taste for soul food you MUST visit Esther’s Cajun Cafe & Soul Food! Their food is cooked with love and tastes amazing!
