Meet the AuthorEveryone has a story to tell, but few would prove to be as profound and inspirational as that of Mr. Kenneth Brown.  He had every excuse to choose a life of failure. At the ages of 13 and 14, his parents had their first child. In spite of being poverty-stricken and evicted ten times, Ken parents still emphasized the importance of education, faith and a strong work ethic.  Starting his journey in less than ideal circumstances, his focus and hunger for excellence, has led to monumental personal and professional opportunities.  As one of the youngest African American McDonald’s owners and operators, Ken has proven to be a formidable presence in the arena of entrepreneurial accomplishment. Ken worked his way through college as a bus boy and waiter graduating from Southern Illinois University. His story is a modern day rags to riches story that he hopes will inspire and motivate his readers to live out their dreams.
