PITTSBURGH, PA, September 14, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Shauntel Green has been included in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Ms. Green has distinguished herself as the chief executive officer and head chef of DirtyBirdsChicken LLC in Pittsburgh since 2018, where she has demonstrated expertise in catering services, soul food cuisine, brunch-style dishes and client-requested menus. Her leadership at DirtyBirdsChicken LLC spans operations, logistics and client relations. She oversees the progress of storefront construction, manages the weekly event calendar and handles bookkeeping, while also ordering supplies, coordinating staff and drivers, booking event spaces and communicating directly with clients to confirm order details.

DirtyBirdsChicken LLC currently operates on a catering model while its storefront is under construction, with Ms. Green closely supervising contractors and project timelines. She finds catering to be a practical approach, allowing for advanced planning and predictable operations. Under her direction, the company's offerings have expanded well beyond its original brunch menu to accommodate a diverse array of client requests.

Prior to founding DirtyBirdsChicken LLC, Ms. Green worked as a security officer while exploring various career paths. During this period, she prepared meals for family gatherings and experimented with different jobs as she sought the right professional direction. She consistently felt that working under others did not align with her aspirations, which ultimately motivated her to pursue entrepreneurship.

Ms. Green's journey into the culinary field began informally when she and two cousins started preparing chicken and waffles on weekends as a casual venture. When her cousins stepped away early on, she recognized the growing demand from customers and decided to devote herself fully to developing the business. Her ability to adapt the menu to meet evolving client preferences has been instrumental in establishing DirtyBirdsChicken LLC's reputation within the Pittsburgh community. Among her proudest achievements are overcoming significant challenges along her entrepreneurial journey and earning recognition for catering events attended by visiting celebrities in the city.

In addition to professional endeavors, Ms. Green's academic background includes studies toward certification in surgical technology and completing coursework in phlebotomy. Although she did not finish the surgical technology program due to the increasing demands of her business, these experiences contributed to her disciplined approach and attention to detail in her current role.

Reflecting on her career, Ms. Green attributes her success to her faith, perseverance and commitment to providing an exceptional experience for every client. She credits her relationship with God as a guiding force throughout her career and points to clear communication, adaptability and pride in her craft as central to her business philosophy. For Ms. Green, pursuing something meaningful requires pushing past the first setback, the point where many people give up.

Outside work, Ms. Green is the founder of Something for the People, a nonprofit initiative she envisions operating alongside her for-profit business. She has begun laying the groundwork for partnerships with local homeless shelters to provide seasonal supplies and meals, as well as supporting children in need through donations of school supplies, clothing, holiday gifts and meals or gift cards distributed through her storefront.

Born in Brooklyn, Ms. Green is also a dedicated mother to her daughter, Manaya. She maintains an active lifestyle by working out with a personal trainer twice a week. Looking ahead, she aims to continue growing and scaling DirtyBirdsChicken LLC by completing and opening her storefront location and eventually expanding with an additional site. She remains committed to realizing her vision for Something for the People as part of her broader goal of giving back to the community while building on her professional accomplishments.
