As we step into a brand-new school year, I’m excited to share the Gentleman Scholar Professional Development Calendar — a year-long roadmap designed to help students, mentors, and our community grow in leadership, life skills, and personal excellence.

From “Own Your Time: Master Your Schedule” in September to “Stay Cool: Stress Management & Well-being” in August, each month brings a focused workshop packed with practical skills, engaging activities, and opportunities for real growth. These aren’t just talks — they’re interactive sessions where you’ll create, practice, and apply tools to succeed in school and life .
Learn Anytime, Anywhere
Every Professional Development session will be recorded and uploaded to my YouTube channel after the lesson, so you can revisit key points or catch up if you missed it. Plus, some sessions will be streamed live, giving you the chance to participate in real time and ask questions directly.
Opportunities to Connect and Grow
This year, I’m making it easier than ever for people to get involved:
- Speaking Engagements — Book me to speak at your school, organization, or event. My sessions inspire, equip, and energize students to lead and succeed.
- After School Program Support — I partner with programs to deliver engaging, skill-building workshops.
- Mentor & Mentee Recruitment — We’re still looking for 3 more mentees and 3 more mentors to complete our student-led committee. This is a chance to lead, learn, and make an impact.
- Small Group Backyard Sessions — Local? Join me for relaxed, powerful discussions and workshops right in my backyard.
- Free Porch Sessions — Pull up a chair, grab some inspiration, and leave with tools you can use immediately.
Let’s Get Started
Time is valuable — and the best time to invest in yourself or your students is now. Whether you want to book me for a speaking engagement, join the committee, or simply drop in for a porch session, let’s connect.
Let’s make this school year one of focus, growth, and real progress — together.
