about me
Omar’s unique lived experience and career journey across government, business, and philanthropy helped him forge a deep understanding of the fundamental systems that impact the ability for people to fulfill their potential. Looking at Omar’s story one way, you can see the Horatio Alger tale of “pulling one’s self up from their bootstraps.” But it is not true. He benefited from the systems of support around him, rather than relying solely on his own hard work and ingenuity to succeed. In this way, Omar represents the true American dream: Success is determined by the systems of support around us that shapes our own self-determination. Omar’s career is focused on strengthening these support systems for everyone.

testimonials
Omar's facilitation is amazing. He does not take over your voice. He recaps to make sure that he (and everyone else) heard your voice loudly and clearly. That's the power in building trust.
