Dikernst Nelson

First off, I’m a father and a loving partner so my story started in Haiti, I was born there and I also served in the US military, a proud member of Alpha Kappa PSi Business Fraternity. I started my company because when I was in the military, I was making money but my credit was messed up and I paid someone to fix it for almost two years no result. So, I realized that school don’t teach us finance or how to be financially independent instead they teach us how to work for someone and how to be in debt. so, my program is to educate and help people gain financial freedom that they deserved.
