WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

Coach AK has been a great mentor through the last few years. He opened up my mind, while giving me the courage to walk away from my day job to fulfill my passion as a real estate investor! The hardest part was getting over the fear of not having the safety and security that a job brings. It wasn't easy, but it has been more than worth it! AK will deliver the results that you're looking for, and will surprisingly unlock the potential you didn't even know you possessed!

AK is a leader, motivator and force anywhere that you place him! I have had the pleasure of working alongside AK during our time at HumanSide. Throughout my time working with AK, I learned that he is not only a visionary leader with a strategic entrepreneurial mindset, but he is also an engaging and confident public speaker, workshop facilitator, and supportive teammate. AK always takes the time for market research to determine the most effective way to have stand out in the market and have a unique business advantage. AK is a strategic thinker with a plan and I highly recommend working with him if you are looking to increase your businesses' reach, build new and innovative products or if you are looking to start any new business. He is very versatile and also a strong team player!

AK is the most, thoughtful, caring, and considerate friend, brother and mentor! When I first met him he was making sure an event attendee (my friend) was feeling included and welcomed! He has never changed, till this day he always hits me up to make sure I am good! Professionally, this man is unstoppable. He continues to be a sought out mega talent! His words and advise have made me contemplate deeply about myself and my relationship with others. Together Everyone Achieves More (T.E.A.M) With AK coaching your team anything is possible! AK will be there for you through thick and thin, ride or die!

Upon meeting Coach AK, I knew right away that I was working with someone who is confident and capable of leading, not only executives through an interesting experience as a public speaker, but also one-on-one as an executive coach. I had the pleasure of working with AK on my public speaking. AK has a knack at helping people understand how to engage the audience through interaction and unparalleled presence. He helped me with my opening and with my closing for my signature leadership talk. As you know, the two most vital components of the talk are your first few minutes when the audience decides if they like and trust you, and the last few moments, when they decide if they're going to remember you. AK is certainly unforgettable, he's someone you will not regret working with!

AK is very much a goal oriented person, who always reaches his goals. He has never let me down on any production and actually surpassed all expectations. My Clients have always loved his work, look and professionalism. I only wish is that he would move back to the area that I service most so I could hire him again.. AK is a super nice person, who I am proud to call my friend..

AK is an exceptional and caring human being who has a strong desire to help disadvantaged kids acquire an education, secure a better life for themselves and achieve success. AK is very dedicated, articulate and a great motivator. It has been an honor and a pleasure to work with him and be a part of an organization that reaches out to underprivileged kids.

I had the opportunity to hear his speak at an event a few years ago, and he captivated the audience with his storytelling and messages. Since then, AK is become a dear friend, mentor and alley. He has appeared on our podcast, Next Level University a few times, and always brought such great insights and lessons. AK is a dedicated, hardworking individual who continuously spreads his message, and is a leading example to everyone of how far determination and hard work can get you!
