ATTENTION: Bakersfield locals
Welcome to the
Founders Circle
Build People. Amplify Voices. Strengthen Bakersfield
Now Open- Limited Spots Available.
"The leaders who shape a city aren’t just building businesses—they’re building people."
Why I Created the Founders Circle?
I’ve seen too many powerful voices in our community stay silent — not because they lack value, but because they lack access, confidence, or a platform.
The Founders Circle was created to change that. It’s a small, intentional group of local leaders committed to creating opportunities for people to be seen, heard, and empowered — on and off the stage.
A $250 annual investment helps fund:
Professional speaking stages
Speaker coaching & development
Inclusive Speak-a-thons
Opportunities for emerging voices
Events that impact the Bakersfield Community
This isn’t about sponsorship. It’s about stewardship.
