Discovering Jamal Robinson: A Journey from Fort Wayne to CEV Collection



Dr. Darryl Glover:



I always like to start by understanding who I’m talking to. Where are you from? Where did you receive your education? And, if you don’t mind sharing, perhaps a fun fact about yourself, my man.



Jamal Robinson:



I love that. My name is Jamal Robinson, and I’m the co-founder of CEV Collection, originally from Fort Wayne, Indiana. We’ll delve into this a bit later, but my co-founder is also from Fort Wayne. I attended Northrop High School, which I consider the best. After high school, I played college soccer and obtained my degree from W.G.U. Indiana. That’s where my story begins, and we’ll dive deeper during the show. A fun fact about me—well, actually, about my wife—is that she’s the great-granddaughter of the last Emperor of Ethiopia, Haile Selassie, making her a princess of Ethiopia.



Jamal’s Vision: Changing the World Through Business and Philanthropy



Dr. Darryl Glover:



Let’s get this ball rolling, man. Today, I really want to dive into your life, Jamal. To start, let’s discuss your ‘why’. What drives you?



Jamal Robinson, Co-founder of The CEV Collection
