Bobby Smith, M.Sc.Ed's Linkedin Analytics

Life Highlights: - Once upon a time, I lived abroad for two years, learning about entrepreneurship in India, South America & Africa. I mostly learned how to be a better human. - Once upon a time, I wanted to be a martial arts actor. I worked for Wesley Snipes, got followed by the mob, and learned martial arts. I gave up on being an actor to pursue social entrepreneurship. Movie Credit: Game of Death 2 Once upon a time, I created the strategy for Echoing Green to become a thought leader in Racial Equity, serving more than 30 countries with a $50M Racial Equity Philanthropic Fund. - Once upon a time, Detroit was facing bankruptcy, so I developed a national bid for the first U.S. Olympic Fencing Trial with support from Mayor Bing. We generated $4M in three days, while hosting a youth health fair for 400 local teens and DMC medical students as mentors.
