From organizing high-impact community events in Tampa to launching scholarships and leveraging social media, Mikhail is on a mission to redefine how young people see vocational paths. Together, they explore how hands-on skills, cutting-edge technology, and community storytelling can challenge the college-only mindset—and open doors to financial independence.
