Shyretha Sheats
Atlanta Contributor
A true Southern peach, Shyretha calls Atlanta home but never forgets “where she came from” (as the elders would say): Carlton, Georgia, nestled in the foothills of Northeast Georgia. A woman who’s touched a gamut of industries, she currently resides in a space between operating a hospitality business, opening a restaurant, crafting production sets in studios, and exploring Atlanta’s landscape through archives, food, and tours. When she’s not working, she’s spending time with her beloved daughter, Luna, and conquering the world with her husband, Mike. After that, she’s drinking her water and minding her business.
