Albert Einstein said, 'If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.'
So simply, I help OLDER people talk to YOUNG people.
In other words, I help personal brands and companies connect with GenZ to create lifelong brand, loyal consumers. As a highly sought after speaker, I often speak to companies on how to create a youthful brand, and why it is essential to connect with all generations. I have been invited to speak at companies like Sprint, Coca-Cola, and ATKearney, and at conferences like the American Marketing Association, Brand Activation Association, and Youth Marketing Strategy.
I have been featured in Business Insider, CBS, Forbes, and BBC. Articles I have written have appeared in Fortune, Yahoo Finance, Forbes, and Huffington post.
I was named the "#1 High School Entrepreneur to Watch in 2016" by StartUp Grind, and deemed a "business phenom and tycoon" by Inc. Magazine.
In my free time I love traveling, reading, winning rec basketball championships and trying to get my dog to like me.
