What is the Entrepreneur of Impact?
Learn MoreMy purpose in business has always been to inspire, motivate, and empower, the men, women, and youth from my community. The disadvantaged, people in poverty, and people that just don’t believe that their dreams are possible.
How do you stay motivated?I stay motivated because I know that it’s bigger than me, there’s someone or a group of people that need me to succeed. They need to see someone where they come from succeed and it will help them to keep pushing toward their goals. That keeps me motivated to know that it’s more than just about me.
What would you do with the $25,000?Being that this is a group effort, giving back to the community jumps out above everything else, there’s no way I could win without the help of others.
