Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My late godfather, Dr. Waldo Harvey, inspired me through his leadership and dedication as the owner of a Family Medicine Practice in Chicago. From a young age, I learned the importance of caring for others' well-being in a community setting, while also supporting local schools and organizations. His commitment to service will continue to guide me.

How do you stay motivated?

The thousands of people I have encountered have motivated me and still do motivate me because I believe in providing accessible and affordable whole health services to those in need. Observing and treating individuals struggling with their mental, emotional, physical, spiritual and financial health and not having the community or resources to help them, is my motivation.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Currently I have a pilot program in writing and I would like to bring it to life, by securing land and breaking ground for the wellness ranch pilot program. The program will entail for at least 4 tiny homes, a service building and a hydroponic greenhouse. The pilot program will cater to veterans looking to transition back into civilian living with caring for their whole selves. Services will include mental health, massage services, yoga, and many more.
