Hey everyone, First off, huge thanks to Titus for this incredible opportunity. I'm one of the finalists for the $100,000 AI Business Challenge, and honestly, I'm still pinching myself. I'm 38, from Saint Maarten, and I need to be real with you all. Growing up here, your options are pretty straightforward: go to school, work whatever job you can find, or sometimes people end up doing things they shouldn't just to get by. I started school when I was nine and dropped out at fourteen. Yeah, I think about that decision sometimes, but I chose to stay on the right path even when things got tough. I've been doing manual labor my entire adult life. Construction, maintenance, whatever paid the bills so I could take care of my family. Don't get me wrong - I'm proud of the work I've done. But there's always this fear in the back of your mind, you know? One bad injury, one accident, and everything falls apart. Then in April, I bought my first laptop. I'm not even kidding - I could barely type. But I discovered AI and something just clicked. I started staying up until one or two in the morning, trying to figure out how prompts work, learning about different tools, slowly building something real. My wife works these brutal 12-hour shifts, and I just want to give her a life where she doesn't have to grind like that anymore. Look, I'm not some tech genius. I don't have an MBA or startup experience. What I do have is this drive that won't quit. This isn't just about me - it's about my kids, my wife, all of us finally having some security. Not having to worry about missing a paycheck or what happens if someone gets sick. I know the odds. I know there are probably people in this competition who are way more qualified than me on paper. But if you believe that sometimes the person who wants it most, who's willing to put in the work no matter what, deserves a shot - then I'm asking for your vote. Whether I win or not, I'm not stopping. This is my path now. But having this community's support would change everything for my family.

So basically, my journey started when I was just a 12-year-old who had an entrepreneurial spark 🚀. Back in fifth and sixth grade—during the last quarters of fifth grade—I launched my very first business at school 🎒. I was selling a digital currency called Robux 💰 from a game called Roblox 🎮. I won’t dive too deep into the details of how I managed it, but that was the first time I experienced what it felt like to run something on my own. By sixth grade, I moved on to selling snacks 🍫, but Robux was still my main bestseller—until I got stopped by the principal 🚫. At the time, I felt really disappointed 😔, but that setback became the turning point. My dad encouraged me and my siblings to explore something new: AI agents 🤖. That’s when I discovered Nate’s channel 📺. At first, I followed every tutorial step by step, but over time—after watching his 8+ hour course and joining his communities 🌍—I leveled up. I went from just following along to actually building my own AI agents and automations. That changed everything. And that’s really how I became who I am today 🙌. Now, I can confidently build AI agents and automations in n8n 🔧. If you’re curious about this space, I highly recommend joining AIS+. You’ll meet people just like you—people who are also diving into the world of AI agents and automation. Surrounding yourself with that kind of community is one of the fastest ways to grow 💡.
