Tiera Sprauve

Tiera Sprauve operates a personal concierge business near Killeen, Texas, where she has been providing tailored support services for nearly four years. Her offerings include crafting customized meals based on client preferences and allergies, planning engaging activities for childcare clients, performing housecleaning and organizing tasks, and managing unpacking and decluttering projects. As a U.S. Army veteran with over 20 years of service and a former single parent, she founded the business to provide the kind of assistance she once needed but was reluctant to seek, ensuring clients do not face similar struggles. Sprauve values the autonomy of managing her own schedule and often works independently in clients' homes, allowing them to return to transformed spaces. She also facilitates donations of unwanted items to local shelters. While she has faced challenges including covert racism and clients not taking her small business seriously, leading her to refine policies and occasionally part ways with clients, she continues to focus on delivering genuine care. Her daughter Princess, a college student running her own small business, has served as an informal mentor, offering insights that have helped refine Sprauve's operations. Outside of work, Sprauve enjoys running with a goal of completing a marathon, lifting weights, and teaching herself the front breaststroke for swimming.
