Rising Stars: Meet Qaim Hunt of Kansas City

Today we’d like to introduce you to Qaim Hunt

Hi Qaim , we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
On Mother’s Day 2023 I just randomly decided to record myself making stuffed salmon and that was my first ever TikTok! I didn’t know what I was doing or had a clue what to say, I just put it out there. I started posting consistently because my first video did well, and I started to get noticed. By me posting on TikTok led to me posting on instagram reels which led me to a larger audience. By the help of my videos that led me to selling plates which is still going strong today!

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It hasn’t always been a smooth road. When I first started selling plates I wasn’t getting no orders. At first that discouraged me but it motivated me to just post more about my plates and keep trying. Which later on that paid off. Another struggle i faced was my TikTok views dropping. I just had to learn everyone has their slumps and it should just teach u to keep going and never give up

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I also do a little acting and modeling. That’s my real dream but that’s a story for another time. What I’m most proud of is that I came a long way. I started off with getting no food orders to getting orders everyday during the summer time. I’m also proud of myself for getting out there on social media. I never was a social media guy but the amount of views and followers I be getting, it’s possible that this social media stuff can change my life. What sets me apart from others is my work ethic. I post almost everyday and I try to be consistent as possible.

How can people work with you, collaborate with you or support you?
People can work with me by collaborating with me with my food videos and trying out my food!
