He now runs a successful restaurant with business partner John Devine -- the only 100 percent Black-owned restaurant in the neighborhood. It’s also a place that’s as much about community-building as it is about food. The restaurant serves beer from the only Black-owned brewery in Seattle and its walls serve as a gallery for local artists; almost everything is for sale and Trey doesn’t take a commission. He’s also raising funds to launch a second location in a predominantly Black and brown neighborhood in South Seattle. The goal: to provide as many economic opportunities as possible to the community there.
