Speaker. Author. Community Strategist.
LIFE IS A DYNAMIC LEADER WHO ASSISTS COMMUNITIES AND ORGANIZATIONS IN DEVELOPING INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS TO THE MOST PRESSING SOCIAL ISSUES.

What Audiences Have to Say
Life has a way of utterly captivating an audience. When he speaks, the room is intense with listening thought, and, when he finishes, a standing ovation is common. His poetry is intelligent and thought provoking.

Lemuel is doing a remarkable work for young people in the United States through the game of chess. What he started in Athens inspires myself and many others to step forward and improve our communities. Keep doing the work, Lem.
