“I personally believe that anyone that steps out on faith, they have certain characteristics: they’re bold, they’re visionaries, and they’re courageous. Our speaker this evening is actually bold. He is a visionary, and he is courageous. He’s mastered the art of storytelling. He’s mastered communication. And he’s never forgotten where he came from.”
Florida House Representative Ramon Alexander
It’s difficult to live up to such a powerful spoken introduction. From the entire team at Carter Media and TOV Digital Media, we thank Representative Alexander for his kind words.
