Sterling Jr., a math tutor and lifelong Jeopardy! fan developed a love for trivia—especially Black and general history—after switching from private to public school. He placed 2nd in middle school’s Black History Bowl and later helped his high school team reach the Top 4 in the 2015 Miami Gardens Heritage Bowl, founded by Mayor Oliver Gilbert III.
In 2022, he began exploring Black history through a business lens. After news broke in 2023 about controversy over AP African American Studies in Florida, he fully committed to creating educational content rooted in cultural truth. Today, he's building a diverse team to share Black and multicultural history through trivia.
