s is shared, voices are amplified, and every partnership creates impact. Is IBE for me? If you’re building, dreaming, or scaling in Southern Indiana—IBE is your space.

As President of IBE, I’m excited to sponsor 5 Young Bosses for the upcoming youth showcase at The Spot on 10th. This is a chance for our Mini‑Moguls to sell, promote, and pitch their businesses in a real marketplace environment — and I don’t want the booth fee to stop ANY young entrepreneur from stepping into their moment.

If you know a young boss who’s ready to shine — or if your child, niece, nephew, or student has a business idea they’re proud of — please check out the flyer below.
Let’s open doors, remove barriers, and give our youth the platform they deserve.

If you are interested in sponsorship. Please email me at [email protected].

Hey Moguls in the Making! I know it's Derby Week but, I’m inviting you into a special moment tonight.
At 7pm EST, my interview with IBE Vice President, Dr. Maurice Ball-on Corporate to Wall Street premieres — and we’re talking about all the things!
We talk about my journey, the lessons, the leaps, and the calling behind the work I do in our community. And yes… I even shared a few stories about some folks who played a major role in my path — they’ll hear it tonight. If my story encourages you, share it with someone who needs a reminder that their path is still unfolding.
🎥 Tune in here at 7pm:
