Today, I am brimming with gratitude. ForbesBLK just launched ForbesBLK 50 - its inaugural list which underscores some of the most forward-thinking and influential Black leaders from diverse backgrounds. I’d like to start by thanking the Forbes team, with a special shout out to Jabari Young, for acknowledging me and my life’s work of supporting the youth across the country alongside my incredible PeerForward family. Not only am I proud to receive this honor, I’m amazed at the company I’m in. To share space with the likes of Beyonce, Michael Jordan, Fawn Weaver, and David Steward to name a few affirms that the work we’ve been doing has an impact. Not only are we committed to building community, but we are uplifting one another along the way. PeerForward has impacted over 600k students to-date and we are on the road to impacting 1 million students. It truly takes a village and we still need support to reach that milestone!
