Life
I grew up watching both of my parents experience financial hardships as the Jamaican economy took a turn for the worst. They say when America catches a cold, Jamaica gets pneumonia. One couldn't begin then to imagine what would happen following the tragedies of September 11, 2001. Shortly following the 9/11 crisis, I recall my mother telling me "you need to take the opportunity to leave while you still can. The world is changing. We do not know what world we will be living in one, two or three years from now." With those words ringing in my ears, I boarded a flight to the United States in pursuit of a university education.

In a short period of time, I was able to position myself to earn a starting salary of a college degree before I even had one! And I did it PART-TIME! For the first in a long time, I feel as though I've been given a chance to truly achieve greatness.
Today, I spend my time between classes showing my friends how they can impact the lives of others as well. Our mission? Financial freedom for ourselves and our families.
The FUTURE is looking brighter than ever!
