A multifaceted leader at the intersection of emerging technology, business strategy, and impactful creativity, my 20+ years professional journey is defined by a unique blend of technological innovation, global business acumen, and philanthropic artistry.As the founder of MetAiBlock, we focus on harnessing the transformative power of AI, the Metaverse, and Blockchain to provide strategic solutions for businesses. Our primary market is the franchise industry, where I've shared insights and guidance as a speaker at major expos and conferences across America.I established and lead the AI and Data Governance Center of Excellence (COE) at Factspan, a consulting firm that empowers organizations to leverage their data assets for economic growth and operational efficiency, reduce risk, and achieve compliance. My expertise in data and AI governance was instrumental in driving the success of businesses like Macys Maersk and CVS in today's intelligence-driven landscape.Underpinning this technology-driven work is my passion for using art as a force for good. As the international ARTtivist known as Mark Phi, I've established a unique model of art philanthropy, creating fine art that generates wealth for collectors and raises funds for charities worldwide. Most recently commissioned by Paramount Pictures to create the promotional painting for the Bob Marley One Love movie and the only artist with a permanent exhibit in the Bob Marley Museum in Jamaica.My professional path has also led me through the dynamic landscapes of Africa, from mining and trading minerals in Sierra Leone, to guiding investors in navigating the complexities of doing business on the continent. I firmly believe that Africa is a land of immense potential and opportunity, and I'm committed to helping shape its promising future.Having lived and worked in Jamaica, multiple US cities, London, Shanghai, and Sierra Leone, I bring a global perspective to all my endeavors. This international experience has honed my ability to connect, lead, and motivate people from diverse backgrounds, fostering a spirit of collaboration and innovation.As I continue to navigate this unlikely path, I'm driven by the pursuit of technological advancement, the power of art to create positive change, and the potential of global business to shape our future. Together, these facets of my career reflect my dedication to making a lasting impact on our world.Proud 👧🏾GirlDad. 🌍Anything Africa. Hiker🏔. Love 🏃🏾‍♂️Track & Field, FAMU 🐍.
