About Jermiko

Jermiko Thomas born and raised in Utica, NY is a TEDx Speaker, a National and International Award-Winning Children’s Book Author, and an entrepreneur. During his childhood, he didn’t start talking until he was six years old and began learning sign language. While doctors deemed him to be mentally slow, he still persevered and ended up testing out of the resource program in his junior year of high school. Harnessing the innate power of knowledge and reading any book he could get his hands on, his life underwent a complete transformation, and he ultimately made it his purpose to help people dismantle those no outlet signs once and for all.

Jermiko strongly believes that no roadblock is too large. Similarly, no dream is too big, so he encourages his clients to overcome any challenges that come their way and chase after their dreams relentlessly and unapologetically. In sharing his story, he strives to awaken the infinite potential in others, for that is one of the key ingredients to paving the path to lasting success.

Besides empowering people, Jermiko has an associate and bachelor’s degree in business administration from the University of the People, where he is currently a graduate student, as well as being a Dale Carnegie alumnus in leadership, a certified project manager, AS9100 certified and a certified lean six sigma black belt.
