I'm an entrepreneur by heart, owning 3 Internet companies, 2 of which are B2B. As a CEO myself, I know what businesses struggle with, and I have helped countless other CEO's and service professionals grow their business by helping them effectively market their presence online.

Since the age of 10, I used to go door to door selling stuff while my friends were playing video games or watching TV. I knew I wanted to have things, and I also knew that the only way to get it is to have money. So I was inspired to figure out ways to make money although I was just a kid who knew nothing about business.

My biggest motivation as a kid was not having a father around who can buy me the things I wanted as a kid but most importantly to teach me the things that I only ended up learning the hard way.

All my friends had dads who bought them whatever they wanted. I didn't want to be left out so I was encouraged to learn how to make money in order to buy things for myself. This was really the start of my entrepreneurship journey.

Since a kid, I have been learning things about business the hard way. That's why when someone asked me which school I graduated from I tell them the "School of Hard Knocks" or the "School of Life."

In fact, I had no choice but to learn everything the hard way. I grew up without my dad so its always been that way for me.

However, that is not to say I had no one. If there was ever someone I can rely on for anything, that person would my mother. She is the strongest person I know in this world...raising 5 kids on her own without any outside help or support.

Everything I am today I owe it to God first and than my mother. Just thinking about her brings joy to my eyes. She suffered so much which is why I made her my most important goal - to make sure she lives happy for the rest of her life.

She's the one that tuaght to be grateful at times of hardship, generous at the time of financial difficulties, and humble at the times of good health and wealth...

She didn't teach me these things by telling me, instead, she always tuaght me by showing me...

For example, since I was just 3 years of age, she used to pass by the poor people living in the streets so that I can put money in their pocket, and she did so when we ourselves had very little to live by.

I know this Bio is supposed to be about me, but there would not be an "about me" if it wasn't for my mother!
