HI, I'm Caliph.
I’m a speaker dedicated to helping students live their dreams!
I believe that every student has infinite potential. I just wish I would have known this when I first began my college career. It took me some years to learn to dream big, and go after what I really wanted in life. Thankfully, I've accomplished quite a bit; but I wonder who I would have been if I had the knowledge I have now!
That's why I speak to college students--to help them understand the value of their experience, how to overcome challenges, and what's truly possible for their lives.
After counseling hundreds of students on law school admissions as a Graduate Mentor in the Academic Outreach Office at UCLA School of Law, I've gained tremendous insight on how students can best use their college careers to prepare themselves for life after college. And through my personal experiences and successes of serving as Associated Students President, attending my dream law school, and starting my dream business, I have a solid understanding of how to get this done. I'm here to teach students the roadmap to success in college and in life, so that they can pursue their wildest dreams, and actually live them. Let me inspire your students to demand the most of themselves, and get the most out of life!

#You Decide
Keynote Presentation Covering Drug Prevention, Mental Health, (& Bullying In High School Settings)
Caliph's life story is a harrowing tale of a young man gripped with drug culture and drug addiction at a very young age, who had to overcome addiction, depression & crippling anxiety to ultimately achieve his dream of becoming an attorney. In this presentation, Caliph shares his journey into addiction and recovery. He talks about first using drugs to stop the abuse of his sister, and then using them to fit in and build community; and, finally using them to cope with his pain of losing his mother during college. He became FREE when he almost lost his life and realized that using drugs was his decision, not the result of his circumstances. And if he could decide to use, he could decide to change. He recounts the day he changed his life and decided to never use drugs again, and what was at stake if he did not do that. Finally, he shares his journey of healing and developing a new mindset that has allowed him to stay sober and succeed in business and in life. Students will leave with an understanding of the power that they have to choose their own destiny, the consequences of choosing drugs, and the benefits of a drug-free life. All presentations can be modified to meet the needs of your group.
Middle School & Elementary Presentations
Choosing CharacterKeynote Presentation Covering Bullying Prevention, Mental Health, and Character.
The choices we make today - even as elementary school students - will be with us forever. Some of those critical choices are what we choose to believe, how we choose to treat others, and, importantly, how we choose to treat ourselves. We all want to be remembered for being a positive influence on others, but we don't always meet that standard.
In this speech, Caliph chronicles the difficult path to learning to treat himself and others well. After having his self-esteem destroyed by a bully, he took these things out on others. It wasn't until he healed himself that he was able to see what an impact bullying had on his life; and how his behavior impacted others. Students will leave with a sense of what standard they should have for developing good character and treating classmates, teachers, guardians and themselves with respect. |
I Know I Can
Keynote Presentation To Inspire Young Students To Reach For Their Greatness.
Are your students truly convinced of their power to reach their true potential? Are they dreaming big enough? Do they know what they do, even at this young age, really matters to the course of their life? In this talk, Caliph shares antidotes about how he discovered his true potential, and how students can, too. He covers self-confidence - why it's important, and how to develop it; having a vision for the type of person you want to be and the type of life you want to live and how to create it; and work ethic - what it really takes to get what you want. By the end of this speech, your students will be inspired to dream bigger, work harder, and become the best version of themselves by reaching for destination greatness.
