Bio

There are many problems in the African American community, but one of the biggest is the lack of financial literacy. My goals include becoming a role model and paving the way for young minds to thrive in entrepreneurship. I find this critical because economic proficiency can help establish better decision-making and, ultimately, a better environment. I plan to pursue a degree in Computer Information Systems to culminate skills regarding coding, data science, marketing and learn what precisely results in a successful business.
