Having lost both my parents before the age of eleven, I became accustomed to expecting loss. However, as a dedicated husband, father of two, and prosperous entrepreneur, I am now driven to win. With over a decade of experience in training and development at Apple, I aided in cultivating motivated and ambitious professionals and facilitated the implementation of diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives throughout the retail sector. As an educational consultant and motivational speaker, I impart vital social and emotional skills and mindsets to young people and professionals to assist them in surmounting any obstacle. My speaking engagements have taken me to numerous colleges, schools, and youth organizations. I firmly believe that there is purpose to be found in pain and that growth and breakthroughs can occur when one confronts their discomfort. It would be my honor to serve your institution or organization.

I have never had a negative encounter with this person. He consistently produces high-quality work and has a strong passion for his work and helping others. His approach is intentional and deliberate, evident in everything he does, making him a skilled craftsman. As a motivational figure, he has an innate ability to connect with others and has a positive impact.

Ismail delivered an exceptional speech to our senior graduating class of 2022! He not only inspired and motivated the students but also the parents and staff who approached him after the speech. In the wake of the challenging year, his skill to grasp the students' attention and interact with them was commendable. I anticipate having him again and would gladly endorse him to anyone seeking a speaker.

Working with iAm Legend LLC was an absolutely amazing experience. Our decision to bring him on board as a motivational speaker for our youth was one of the best we've made. His story of overcoming obstacles, self-improvement, and constantly striving for growth was truly inspiring, especially coming from an African American man. We highly recommend him!
