My family includes…
my wife, Shelley, and my kids Mekhi and Malaika.
In my free time you'll probably find me…
kayaking and baking cheesecakes.
My greatest blessing is…
my family and educating individuals and families about financial literacy.
We feel it’s important to support the communities we serve because…
we want to give back to the places we call home and the people who live there. There are many foundations and causes, but we sometimes don't see the impact at the local level. We feel it's important to improve our communities and focus on making a local impact!
Our philosophy on volunteering is…
it’s more fulfilling to give than to receive. We get so much more than we give when we help our communities and families.
We’re most proud of…
the impact we make each year at our local level. Last year, we donated $1.4 Million Dollars to the North Carolina/Virginia region.
