Dr. Edward Burns Jr.

Dr. Edward Burns' journey has been one of incredible perseverance and determination in the face of adversity. After honorably serving his country in the military, Dr. Burns found himself homeless on the streets of Chicago with his young daughter. During this difficult time, they sought shelter behind a bank in the dead of winter and were forced to eat discarded food from trash cans just to survive. However, Dr. Burns pushed through the difficulties. Despite being told as a teenager that he would never graduate high school due to his dyslexia and lack of focus, he went back to school and graduated college, earning a Doctorate degree.

After overcoming homelessness, Dr. Burns continued to face economic struggles that drove him to work tirelessly to achieve his dreams. Refusing to give up, Dr. Burns took on multiple jobs, working long hours before realizing he needed to take control of his own destiny through entrepreneurship.
