It focuses on four girls from different backgrounds — Olive from Charlotte; Shannon Elizabeth from El Paso; Nikki from Chino; and Ara from San Diego — each with their own goals and motivations. The story blends their personal ambitions with the tradition of cookie selling, exploring themes of ambition, sisterhood, entrepreneurship, and the challenges of balancing youthful dreams with adult expectations.In short, Cookie Queens is both a celebration of a sweet American tradition and a coming-of-age story about four girls navigating the pressures and rewards of selling cookies — and themselves — in the process.https://youtu.be/nnSQS43Eil8?si=MAIfX56APCCy2V9CMeet the Panelists: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/e20bc8d0-bd81-11f1-99c8-11443acb038e-rimg-w853-h740-dc180808-gmir.jpg Carina Allen (Brooklyn, NY) is a photographer, director, and music artist who’s career and portfolio have spanned across the fashion industry, the music industry, photo and video production, event photography, and more.
