Hey, Iβm Ciara!
Iβm a business mentor, digital entrepreneur, and advocate for leadership and service. My passion is helping others build businesses that align with their values, lead with integrity, and create financial freedom while making a lasting impact.
As a student leader, business consultant, and kinship foster parent, I understand the importance of ethical leadership, education, and building sustainable success. Through mentorship, entrepreneurship, and strategic business development, I help individuals unlock their potential, whether in business, education, or life.
π‘ Service isnβt just about giving backβitβs about creating opportunities for growth, transformation, and impact.
Leadership is rooted in service, and true success comes from uplifting others. As a leader, mentor, and advocate for student engagement, Iβve dedicated my journey to empowering students, entrepreneurs, and professionals through mentorship, education, and ethical leadership.
One of the greatest challenges in student organizations like Phi Theta Kappa is engagement, ensuring students stay involved, take on leadership roles, and maximize their opportunities. My work focuses on developing innovative strategies to increase participation, foster leadership, and create lasting impact in PTK chapters and beyond.
π‘ Every step I take is driven by my belief that leadership is about service. My mission is to empower others to lead with integrity, build with purpose, and create impact in their surrounding communities.
