Originally born and raised in NYC, Anthony was labeled as the kid who couldn't sit still. Throughout his entire scholastic life, he barely made grades that was worth bringing home.  From Elementary school to High School, he could count on one hand where he had a grade of 80 or up.  Constantly being told that he wasn't going to be much in life, Anthony believed it and moved with that mindset for a very long time.  Often hearing that he was a leader, Anthony never believed in himself due to low self-esteem.  While hanging with the wrong crowds and seeing the affects that had on him, he finally made a decision to improve himself.  After a couple of years of hard work, Anthony was able to graduate on time and with honors. However, after HS, his journey took many up's, downs, failures, apathy, and loads of disappointments.  Speaking since the age of 16 along with having a dynamic personality, Anthony speaks with a convicting passion. He is on a mission to help middle school, high school, college scholars by addressing mental barriers, boosting self-esteem, providing practical guidance to help them excel academically and socially. Helping them overcome self-doubt, embrace growth, and reach their full potential and develop mental resilience to push through adversity to help prevent them from wavering or giving up on the path of their purpose like he once did.
