I Create Birmingham: Randall Porter
"For me, personal style is about more than just clothes, it’s about empowerment. I know when I wake up in the morning, make my bed, and put on something I feel confident in that it’s going to be a good day."

"The Birmingham community is extremely supportive of the arts, and Opera Birmingham does an incredible job of programming diverse offerings for everyone to enjoy."
"The residents of Birmingham are inclusive and really seem to take pride in local businesses, restaurants, events, and the city itself."
"The clothes I make are handmade, but the fact is all the clothes we buy are handmade by someone. Maybe that someone is a mother in Bangladesh earning only three dollars a week, and that’s why your shirt is able to cost twenty bucks. I didn’t really understand the value of all the work it takes to craft well-made clothing until I began doing it myself."
"At the end of the day, we are storytellers and fortunate to have the platform to share what’s important in our city, our state, and our world."
