The Story

It started with a house we lost.

I grew up going to a family reunion every two years. For a long stretch of my childhood we were a family with two great grandparents living at the same time, and that meant something. It meant the table was full and the history was still in the room with us.

When both of them passed within two weeks of each other, the family fought over a house we had held for forty years. We lost it. That was the moment the importance of legacy became real for me, not theoretical.

I was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, and earned a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration from North Carolina A&T State University, graduating Cum Laude.

I entered the life insurance industry and spent five years in the field before a mentor taught me something that reframed the work: generational wealth was never just about money or land. It is about stewardship, legacy, and principle, rooted in biblical understanding.

In 2026, I partnered with Kenney Emmanuel to launch Be Wealth and Be Wealth EAs, two companies built around one unified philosophy.

Personal mission statement

The Philosophy

We help three types of people. GPS.

01

Grow

For families building wealth from the ground up who need a real plan, not just a product.

02

Protect

For families who have built something and need to shield it from taxes, risk, and poor coordination.

03

Share

For families ready to transfer what they have built with clarity, so it does not get lost the way it can without a plan.

“The Worst thing you can do in life is navigate down a path with no set destination!”

— Jaquez X. Baldwin

How We Coordinate

One strategist. One coordinated team.

FinancialPlanningTaxPlanningLegacyPlanningYourStrategist

Instead of families managing five different professionals who never talk to each other, Be Wealth coordinates all of it through one strategist.

Mission

We exist to help leaders of families turn financial complexity into a clear, coordinated plan they understand and control, guiding families to grow, protect, and share their wealth with confidence and clarity. Every strategy we design is built around your life, not a product, not a pitch.

Vision

To establish a vertically integrated wealth system. We exist to unify the fragmented worlds of insurance, tax strategy, and estate planning into one flawless, highly coordinated ecosystem. Our vision is to become the Harvard and Princeton of the insurance and tax industry, setting a standard of academic rigor, structural excellence, and absolute coordination that has never existed before.

The Work

Two companies. One coordinated system.
