What is Entrepreneur of Impact?

My inspiration comes from my family and the communities that raised me. I watched talented people with big ideas never get the opportunities or support they deserved. That pushed me to build something bigger than myself. The VI Family is about creating a creative ecosystem where artists, entrepreneurs, and families can grow together. I’m inspired by leaders who build platforms, not just profits, and by the idea that one vision can open doors for thousands of others.
How do you stay motivated?My kids keep me motivated. I want them to grow up knowing their dad cared enough to build something that helped other families too. I know life can change at any moment, but the love and opportunities you pour into people can’t be erased. For a long time I felt like I was in the shadows of things I was good at. That’s why I work hard to build spaces where creators, parents, and kids can shine without feeling overlooked.
What would you do with the $25,000?I built this life by choosing to care about others… and it shows in everything I create. From tattooing to painting, music, sports, and bringing people together, my vision is real. I’m building a space where art, dance, and culture live under one roof. This $25,000 is the push to make it real. Not just for me, but for everyone who needs a place to grow. The VI Family is ready… we just need that one daily vote.
