Celebrating Growth and Gratitude: My Graduation from the Nasdaq Milestone Circles Program

I’m excited to announce that I’ve officially graduated from the Milestone Circles program at the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center!...

I’m excited to announce that I’ve officially graduated from the Milestone Circles program at the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center!

This 12-week experience offered invaluable insight, mentorship, and connection with a national community of entrepreneurs—thanks to the generous support of Wells Fargo.

Over the last two years, my focus has been on scaling the reach and deepening the impact of Coffee Creek Media Group. From publishing diverse children’s books to creating educational tools and branded content, my goal has remained the same: to close the literacy gap and increase representation in children’s literature. The Milestone Circles program was another key step in advancing that vision.

One of the most memorable moments? Being featured on Nasdaq’s MarketSite Tower in Times Square during our graduation celebration. It was more than a photo op—it was a humbling, affirming experience that reminded me why this work matters.

To my peers, mentors, and the incredible team at the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center: thank you.

To fellow entrepreneurs: Keep showing up. Keep believing. Your vision deserves the spotlight.
