Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My inspiration comes from everyday people who refuse to quit people working two jobs, people rebuilding after loss, people who’ve faced homelessness and still fight to stand back up. I’m inspired by resilience. By the quiet strength of people who keep moving forward when life says stop. CyberHex was born from that same spirit: turning struggle into strength and building something that reminds people they still have power.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by remembering where I started and the people who are still fighting through their own struggles every day. I’ve seen how life can knock people down financial hardship, uncertainty, even homelessness but I’ve also seen the strength it takes to keep going anyway. That resilience inspires me. CyberHex was built from that mindset: turning struggle into strength and creating something meaningful from difficult moments.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would invest the $25,000 into growing CyberHex and expanding the impact behind it. Part of the funding would go toward producing our first large runs of games and improving our online platform so we can reach more people. But just as important, I want to use part of it to host community seminars and workshops that help people channel anger, frustration, and hardship into something constructive whether that’s creativity, storytelling, game design, or building their own ideas.
