I am SO excited to announce that I’ll be presenting at this year’s HBCU EdTech Summit & Career Fair in Atlanta, GA! 🎓✨

To be a young, Black woman in tech — building education technology that has already impacted thousands of students and families — that is what fuels me every single day.

That’s what I do it for.

This moment is extra special because this will be my FIRST time presenting my new platform, one that eight years of lessons, trials, and unwavering support helped me build.

From securing $3M in scholarships as a student to now helping others do the same through Securing Degrees technology… God is so good.

If you’re in Atlanta, make sure you register; you don’t want to miss this!

Lately, I’ve been in more and more rooms where AI and venture funding are positioned as the only paths to success.

But let me be clear:
You don’t need to raise millions or integrate AI into every corner of your business to build something meaningful, profitable, and scalable.

I’ve bootstrapped to multi–six figure revenue, helped 4,000+ families secure over $25M in scholarships, and built trusted partnerships with school districts, colleges, and nonprofits.
All without raising a single round or “leading with tech” for the sake of trendiness.

AI is powerful—and yes, we’re exploring ways to use it internally to improve our backend systems and support.
But what makes us unique is that we’re actually reaching our students with high-touch support, not letting robots do the work for them. Our students don’t need more automation—they need accountability, encouragement, and access. That’s what actually changes outcomes.

And when it comes to funding, I’m not anti-investor—I’m pro-alignment.
We’ll raise when the terms match the mission, not just because “everyone else is.”

To any founder building from scratch and feeling behind because your journey looks different—you’re not behind. You’re building with purpose.

And that’s more than enough.
