BITCON 2022

During my talk, I will share precisely how entrepreneurs of color can combine their experiences in life, business, and hobbies to identify gaps in the marketplace, innovate in ways that current market leaders don't, create scalable, industry-leading solutions, and build personal brand credibility along the way.

I spent 15+ years building software, I've had a segment on the #1 faith-based drive time radio show in the U.S. (RadioOne - the Willie Moore Jr. Show - 29 markets) for 5 years. I spent almost 3 years working for Zone 4 records based in Atlanta (working with artists such as Keri Hilson), ran a boutique marketing agency for 5 years, did political strategy for politicians such as Keisha Lance-Bottoms, and helped over 250 people write/publish books.

I was able to parlay all this experience into building my current software platform - www.Blooksy.com – which helps writers, and scholars, write books, academic articles, dissertations, white papers, using Aven (our artificial intelligence research & writing tool).

I think that if we learn to ignore the urge for instant gratification, and learn how to identify white space in the market, our past experience can catapult us into futures we can't even imagine.
