26 year old Collette Divitto is the founder of her cookie company called Collettey's Cookies. Collettey's Cookies is a company based in Boston, Massachusetts.

When Collette graduated college and started applying for jobs when she was 22 years old, she was turned down again and again.[1] Collette's mother Rosemary Alfredo says that she believes all of the rejection Collette faced actually made her want to prove people wrong.[2]

Stephen DeAngelis, the owner of the Golden Goose Market in Boston, Massachusetts, was the only grocer in Boston to give Collette's Cookies shelf space.
