Amobi did a fantastic job and I was impressed from our initial conversation. It was clear from the start he was passionate about financial literacy, speaking with youth and giving back. In addition, his professionalism is impeccable. He took the speaking engagement seriously and sought to ensure he met expectations on the topic at hand. His style of presenting using more pictures than words on a slide, known as Pecha Kucha, accomplished exactly what it seeks to. That is to captivate the audience, Amobi’s presentation did exactly that. Amobi’s relatable examples and sharing of personal stories were impactful to the audience. Being a young, successful, purpose drive, African American male allowed our youth both male and female, to see something different than what the world typically chooses to highlight.
