"Swarmmode is how I see it...when bees are on swarm they fly with their leader in the center. They are either working, creating honey, pollinating so we can eat, or protecting their resources. Swarmmode Creative is like a colony of bees and our "swarm" is infusing the utmost creativity in design services, products, helping other companies and community/youth outreach. Bees are always on a collective mission toward a goal. Swarmmode's goal is to, in the most culturally effective way, get Jesus to the masses, feed 'em, protect 'em, and give 'em hope. Plus have a little fun doing it all!"
-Swarmmode Creative's founder and president LaToya "Toy Swarmmode" Mathis
The Swarmmode Creative Mission:
Swarmmode Creative will use the work ethic of a bee as a guide to becoming a "hive" for art, design, education and social problem solving to demonstrate biblical principles that will improve the quality of life of it's neighbors. They seek to do this by:
- Simply creating beautiful art along with innovative and functional design
- Use this same creativity to help solve societal problems
- Educate the underprivileged in areas of biblically-based creativity to foster an ability to become a problem solver in their own communities
- Implement exemplary customer service and business practices that demonstrate care for others and social responsibility.
The Swarmmode Creative Vision:
We have made it our life's duty to use art and design to provide the most creative and life improving products, business and social services for our community and abroad.
LaToya, or affectionately known as "Swarmmode" by her peers has always been living by the principles of Swarmmode Creative before the start of the company in 2010. She has received a degree in Fine Arts from Miami-Dade College's Visual Arts Honors Conservatory, a bachelors in Fashion Design from the prestigious Parsons School of Design in New York as well as a Master's degree in Entrepreneurship from Nova Southeastern University in Florida. While working in her respective industries as well as doing much community work she knew it was only a matter of time before she would branch out on her own and be on "Swarmmode". What you will see, from here on out, is the process of her making the dream of merging art and giving into reality. Enjoy!
