About

The World's Mayor 🌍 | Omni-Media Architect & Advocacy ActuaryThe title wasn't born in a voting booth. It was forged in fire.Addiction. Homelessness. HIV. Six incarcerations. Severe trauma and abuse that fractured my identity before I had language for it. I live with ASD, DID, and ADHD. Frequency-induced tremors once cost me the ability to broadcast or be near electronics without violent physical reaction. During that period — convinced I might be dying — I wrote nine books.I don't teach resilience. I am the argument for it.Processed trauma is the most valuable intellectual property of our era. In the hands of someone who has done the work.―Currently deployed in Bafut Kingdom, Cameroon with Princess Abumbi Prudence of the Bafut Royal House, building indigenous media infrastructure through The Sovereign Protocol. The Bafut people named me Tah Lah — Father of the Land. A second deployment runs in Nakivale Refugee Settlement, Uganda. Every consulting dollar funds this.―WHAT I BUILDMedia Company in a Box — survival stories into sovereign media enterprises.The Sovereign Franchise — communities owning their narrative and economic future.Failure to Framework — your worst chapters become your most valuable IP.―THE CREDENTIALS→ 4x International Bestselling Author→ 126+ IMDb Credits | 500+ episodes | Award-winning producer→ Speaker: United Nations, World Bank & global stages across six continents→ Oxford & Google certified AI Strategist→ SCORE Certified Mentor→ Living and working with ASD, DID, ADHD & frequency-induced tremors―Sell the scar, not the wound.
