Creativity through the lens of a fashion model, retired union carpenter, founder and owner of Gott Street Blues "Being Creative is just my entire being." Meet Brenda “Maxx” Cumby McGee, Founder and Owner of GottStreet Blues. She is a lifelong fashion model and union carpenter began her journey when she was 10 - both playing dress up in her mom’s clothes, and also creating a construction site in her mother’s garden with a red Tonka truck. One of her biggest challenges as a woman in the trades? Having properly fitting, and functional work clothing. Maxx has brilliantly paired her expertise in both industries to create a line of clothing for working women where the focus is the fit. Launching in 2025 is ‘the pant” that was designed with women’s bodies in mind showcasing features and functionality for women on the job. https://gottstreetblues.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@gottstreetblues2020 https://www.linkedin.com/in/brenda-maxx-cumby-mcgee-10b5352a/ https://www.tiktok.com/@maxxwell814 Send us a text
