About Us
Our Love for Stories
Our journey began with books. We have always believed that stories shape character. Through reading and writing, we create meaningful narratives that teach children the life skills that matter most — how to be courteous to others, how to be a good sport in victory and defeat, the value of education, and the importance of self-care and confidence.
We write with intention — to empower children not only to dream big, but to live well, treat others kindly, and grow into thoughtful leaders.
Who We Are
LatLey Collective was founded by Detroit natives LaTrice Browning and Bradley Ryans — two professionals whose careers span real estate, executive leadership, insurance advisory, strategic development, and structured growth.
Together, they created LatLey Collective as a long-term brand house rooted in character, discipline, creativity, and meaningful impact. What began as a shared love for reading and storytelling has evolved into a multi-sector platform built with intention — where imagination meets strategy.
