In February 2009, Joshua Anton was asked to leave home while still a senior in high school. Going from the verge of homelessness to becoming a student, entrepreneur, and author was a very scary, long road. However, from the words of the author himself, he would not be where he is today had it not been for those around him. They motivated him to transform his obstacles into opportunities by providing inspiration and support for his dreams.Today, Joshua Anton is a student at the University of Virginia, McIntire School of Commerce (expecting to graduate in 2014) and a recent graduate of Northern Virginia Community College. Currently, he serves as the CEO of two start-ups: A.I. Textbooks, LLC… and Launch, LLC. He is also the CFO of Awesome Ideas, LLC. His aspiration is to one day become a successful businessman, similar to Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. His dream is to "pay it forward." He wants to prove that anyone can achieve their dreams, no matter where they start in life, and no matter what challenges or obstacles they face. According to Anton, "If you work hard and have a positive perception, you can achieve your dreams."
