#MCM: Tunji Adebayo

1. What's your story? What makes you unique?

I was born in Nigeria and moved to Georgia when I was 5 years old. I was raised in Georgia and that is where I attended The University of Georgia and became a member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Incorporated. Upon graduating, I joined Teach for America and moved to south central Los Angeles to teach. I am the youngest of 9 children and have 7 sisters.

2. What motivates you?

People motivate me. I believe the world is lacking so much because people don't realize their potential -- how special and great they are. My motivation is using my blessings to get others to the point where they can actualize their potential.

3. Who is a hero of yours?

My mother. She planted the seeds in me that have grown me into the man I am today.

4. What's your future plan? Your goals?

I will open up a nationwide holistic health company that assists people in being complete people taking care of nutrition, exercise, social, emotional, and the mentality needed to be successful.

5. If you could give one piece of advice, what would it be?

Do everything you do with love no matter how difficult or frustrating. The world needs that blessing and you will find that God and Life will bless you back 10 fold.

6. Anything we haven't asked that you'd like to talk about.

My degree was in dietetics & nutrition science, I am a certified personal trainer, and I am receiving my masters in policy and administration on Sunday.
