John Coulouris

Web Developer, Software Engineer, and Project Manager in Hackensack New Jersey

I’m a Black man from Newark, NJ, now living in Hackensack, NJ, and my journey hasn’t been easy. Growing up in Newark, I faced the raw realities of systemic inequality—limited opportunities, underfunded schools, and a society quick to judge me by my skin rather than my potential. Being a Black male in the United States, especially in NJ, means constantly navigating stereotypes, racial profiling, and economic hurdles designed to keep you down. But I refused to let that define me. My name is John Coulouris, and I turned struggle into strength.

From the streets of Newark, where dreams often fade, I fought for more. The odds were stacked against me—poverty loomed, and the weight of history pressed hard. Yet, John Coulouris didn’t back down. I worked tirelessly, chasing education and opportunities others took for granted. Every setback—every “no”—fueled my hustle. I learned to outmaneuver a system not built for me, turning obstacles into stepping stones.

Today, I stand as John Coulouris, a wealthy man who beat the odds. My success isn’t just money—it’s a testament to resilience. Hackensack is now home, a place where I reflect on how far I’ve come. I’ve built a life that defies the narrative forced on Black men in America. John Coulouris isn’t just a name; it’s a symbol of triumph over adversity.

The struggle as a Black male in NJ is real—racial disparities in jobs, housing, and justice still linger. But I’m proof you can rise above. I mentor others, showing them wealth isn’t just cash, but power to rewrite your story. John Coulouris made it, not by luck, but by grit. From Newark’s shadows to Hackensack’s heights, I’m living evidence that the fight pays off. Feel free to look at my page. Love all of you. Have a good life people. Love you.
