Justice Nicole with OurErrands was born on the summer day of May 22nd, 1994 in Ventura California; to her amazing parents Thelma and Daniel. When Justice was 11 years old she had her first personal assisting job helping a local artist in California schedule and set up his showcases. Fast forward 12 years and she is a graduate of the illustrious Clark Atlanta University where she earned her dual-degree in Business Management and Supply Chain; and now owns the first on-demand personal assisting company. Quick services like lyft, instacart, and postmates encouraged herself and her cousin to think smarter not harder, and create something that will disrupt start-up tech companies not just in Atlanta, in the nation. OurErrands is a platform that focuses on OUR Assistants, OUR Clients, and both of their experiences. We have created a platform where college-educated individuals can showcase their skillsets to work for a small business owner or entrepreneur that is already in their desired field.
