The people behind this work.

I have decided to remove myself as a face of TYSF. I will be looking for someone capable of running TYSF, Community First, Motionpreneurs and Motion Trades with a team.

I'm not a front stage type and would rather be behind the scenes watching and making sure everything’s running smoothly and working as it should.

Finding this person may be difficult being there’s much responsibility within. This is a vision with much more that will be set in place as we progress. I will be looking to acquire a building in Seaside ASAP!

The building will be where Scholars & Skates will be with an iFly and STEM center to coordinate the all around curricula of everything offered through STEM-STEAM-STEAMM.

It all began with a simple thought: giving back to the community. What started as an idea quickly evolved into something far greater — a commitment to lifting people up from the ground up, from youth to adults, and every stage in between.

Our mission is built on three pillars, each designed to meet people exactly where they are:

The Young Scholars Foundation (TYSF) is the foundation of it all. We motivate, inspire, and guide our youth — keeping them focused and supported every step of the way. Through motivational speakers, counselors, and dedicated mentors, we help them build the confidence and structure they need for the levels ahead. From K-12 through high school graduation and beyond, our team walks alongside them, ensuring no young person navigates the journey alone.

Motionpreneurs begins where the mind is ready to grow. It is designed for those who aspire to reach new heights — tapping into ambition wherever it sparks. Parents play a vital role here too, often stepping into new territory they may have never explored or had to set aside due to the demands of daily life. Together, families and mentors discover what's possible when opportunity meets determination.

Motion Trades is about restoring what's been lost. Not everyone wants to become an entrepreneur or pursue a college degree — and that's okay. Motion Trades honors those who prefer to work with their hands, to build, to create, to get dirty. We are bringing back the trades, giving people a path to a proud, skilled, and sustainable livelihood.

Looking ahead, I am excited to see where TYSF can go with a team that is fully invested in helping our youth thrive — from the ground up. This is more than a mission. It is a movement.
