"When I got to college, I looked around at my peers and realized we're not getting this education at home. We’re not getting this education in college. I was a business management major with a minor in accounting and marketing. Okay, so what about the communication majors? What about the art majors? What about the science majors, the medical majors? They're not getting this information. And I really realized, okay, this is where I want to make my mark." - Hassan Thomas
