My biggest achievement aside for 20 years of marriage i suppose is personal. On a personal level i feel most fulfilled when i help others. I believe the world is changed or improved through the actions of people i often find myself in situations wherein i offer encouragement, console or advise often resulting in people reciprocating with the question "what do you do in life?" Followed by the statement "this has been an amazing talk" then reciprocating to me with gratitude for me showing a gift or a knack for seeing the bright and logical side of a situation. Allowing them to feel encouraged and more positive about their circumstances. My personal mantra is my "4e's" To enlighten, to encourage, to educate, or to at least entertain.

Emmanuel Ekwedike, Ph.D., is a published researcher, dynamic keynote speaker, and notable consultant with a laudable passion for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies. He is an expert in using AI and ML technologies to provide endless solutions for challenges in cybersecurity, big data analytics, finance, and healthcare. His friendly personality has further enabled him to bridge the gap between business owners and these advanced tools and concepts. Born and raised in Nigeria, this driven AI Research Engineer relocated to Queens, NY at 18 years-old, in pursuit of a higher quality tertiary education and more opportunities for a promising future. It was a life-changing move, as most Nigerians with a similar background don’t have access to higher education, let alone a full scholarship. Emmanuel is grateful to have found a different path and to have been blessed with enough scholarships and fellowships to achieve his dreams. Life in America has inspired him to broaden his horizons and make meaningful contributions to the world. He plans to leverage his knowledge and resources to create more opportunities for the less fortunate. After earning a Bachelor’s in mathematics from Brooklyn College, he went on to accomplish graduate degrees in Applied Mathematics and Operations Research & Financial Engineering from City College and Princeton University, respectively. More recently, Dr. Ekwedike completed his post-graduate studies at Princeton under the school’s Presidential Fellowship, achieving a Ph.D. in Operations Research & Financial Engineering. As an avid learner, Emmanuel makes it a point to maximize his performance and capabilities by staying ahead of emerging developments, trends, and information. He uses his ever-expanding knowledge and skills to help small businesses implement AI and ML technologies to automate operations and drive growth. He also develops ML algorithms for these clients and teaches them how to train these programs themselves. Those he works with rave about his ability to articulate important information from complex research to achieve a basic yet thorough understanding of the content for non- programmers. Emmanuel’s uncanny communication and interpersonal skills, zest for collaboration, impeccable leadership and management, and highly innovative problem-solving abilities are what truly sets him apart from his competitors. He is highly experienced in real-world application of his mastery. Inspired by diversity, he finds valuable lessons in culture-rich, international travel, which inspires him to build useful context around data. Ekwedike firmly believes that our ability to understand people is what brings data to life, creating a global approach to this field of science. He strives to extract meaningfulness from every project he takes on while catering to his clients’ needs and delivering a positive impact.

My journey as a speaker began the same as many speakers do—long before they are speaking anywhere—with the hardship that they will later come to speak on. For me, that hardship happened in my early 20s when I became very sick with multiple chronic & rare conditions. For 10 years, I was fighting for my life, relying on a feeding tube & infusions to survive. I spent many years advocating for myself in the doctor's office & with insurance. Witnessing & experiencing how broken the system was brought me to a place where I wanted to expand my advocacy efforts. I knew I could speak & share my story to try to make others feel less alone, bring awareness to the problems, & help others get the help they need—so I did. Starting with just a few people here & there, my speaking engagements gradually expanded as I became more involved in disease-specific organizations, hosting statewide support groups, speaking at online events & eventually presenting to members of congress. While I loved being able to advocate in those ways, I knew that I didn't want to stop trying to find more ways to help others like me. I didn't know where to start though, so I reflected on all the hard things I had gone through & tried to pinpoint what had helped me most. I realized the thing that in many ways saved me—was hearing people share their stories & experiences online. Through these other patients, I was able to get to the right doctors, get diagnosed, & feel less alone on my journey. Inspired by these creators, I decided I wanted to pay forward all that they had given me & create something to help all those going through what I had gone through & was still going through. While trying to figure out what I could do that would help, I came up with a formula that helped: Pain → Passion, Purpose, Positive Impact. I came up with this when reflecting on each pain point I experienced & asked myself how I could use my passions & talents to make a difference. What purpose could it serve, & how can it help make a positive impact on people most? I applied this formula again & again, leading to the creation of 3 businesses, a non-profit, 4 podcasts, multiple YouTube channels, Instagram accounts, online stores & more! This formula didn't just help me. I watched as those I shared it with were able to use it to create lives they loved & found ways to help others too! It became clear to me this message was needed. This has brought me here now, where I speak about my journey - all the parts of it: the mental health, the chronic illnesses, the rare diseases, advocacy & activism, learning to own your story, overcoming adversity, entrepreneurship & how to turn struggles into strength to create a life you truly love, filled with passion, purpose & positive impact! I hope that through these talks we are able to inspire, empower & equip others on their journey too! I would love nothing more than to come alongside you and make a difference in people's lives & the world - together!
