Anthony was born in Compton and raised in Inglewood, California. Anthony experienced first hand the full impact of many systemic inequities. With the power of hope and faith, Anthony has shown resilience and perseverance throughout his life. Having experienced poverty as a child, it sparked his interest to become self educated; finance, real estate, business development, and social services. He went on to work for a real estate investment group, where he prospered and learned the fundamentals of real estate investing. With his desire to make systemic change, Anthony directed his focus to social services. Anthony believes that people coming out of underserved communities who serve as change agents, are the most effective in making equitable changes for the generations to come.
