When you want to show up in the world as your boldest, most confident and most expressive self, all you have to do is rock a tee from Ari Simpson, entrepreneur and Tees of Life CEO.


Along with her husband James, Ari co-founded Tees of Life, the DOPEST statement tee brand there is. It’s no wonder that women (and a few good men!) who are ready to show the world they’re worthy of it all rely on Tees of Life’s bold messaging to do the talking for them.


Ari’s natural talent for creating statements that crush self-doubt and promote self-love led her to launch the business. Her entrepreneurial prowess has not only helped her grow Tees of Life to a 7-figure company, but she often shares her expertise with other dope creators on how to successfully start and scale their own t-shirt businesses.


From her humble beginnings in a small South Carolina town, Ari has racked up many impressive accomplishments including generating over $1M in revenue in 1 year (within just 3 years of starting her business) and gaining recognition on MSN, OWN, Business Insider and other media outlets. However, she is most proud of being featured in Black Enterprise and listening to God to go full-time in her business.


If there’s one word that encompasses what Tees of Life is about, it’s community. Every message Ari and James put on their tees is there to remind you that no matter what life throws at you – good times, tough times and everything in between – you can rest assured someone can relate to exactly what you’re going through.
