#bethechange
Company bio
I've recently taking a less intensive and more advisory role with my company, Identity Marketing. My current project is two years in the making with a motivational/positivity company with a big portion being a clothing line. The concept is: #BETHECHANGE seeks to create a movement that serves to inspire people to make the world a better place. After a major event that took place in 2016, I took steps to leave my work behind, to dedicate everything to creating a movement, a goal, and spreading a message. By starting with ourselves and looking within, we can find strong forces to incite the change we need as a society. Politicians and policy don't dictate who we are as a people. We need to better ourselves and be there for each other. We have the ability to #bethechange. People do a lot of talking in this country, but #bethechange looks to provide a clear message of hope while finding charities that need help. We have built a network of ambassadors and motivational speakers to be utilized as part of our movement. The message I want to convey is that we are more than our politics, we are more than our failures, we are people that have greater power than any government to create a change. The way we interact with people, the way we make ourselves better people and the time and resources we give to our community is 100 times more powerful than what any act of congress or any president can do.
