[RECAP] AT&T 28 Days ft. @Common and @Marioarmstrong






On February 15th, 2012 I had the honor of attending the AT&T 28 Days Speaker Series and it was absolutely amazing. The series was hosted by Common and the guest speaker was Baltimore's own Mario Armstrong. The event was centered around achieving some of your entrepreneurial dreams while integrating today's technology.

Mario Armstrong captivated the crowd as he went thru 5 steps that he personally incorporated into his life to help him quit is 9-5 and chase after his entrepreneurial dreams. Mario and the people at AT&T gave a participant a brand new Hewitt Packard laptop so she could begin here journey into starting her non profit organization centered around helping at risk youth in the Anacostia area.

Not only did Mario Armstrong provide the audience with some great jewels, Common ended the event by performing some of the songs off his new album "The Dreamer, The Believer".


Above are a few pictures from that night. Below is a brief summary of the event from AT&T and it also provides a website so you can hopefully catch this event in a city near you.
