Starting his tech career at the age of 23yrs old, Antoine first went down the financial path. At Wells Fargo he ranked #1 in sales and won the prestigious Presidents Award for the company. Learning that his passion was truly in sales and creativity he shifted to creating his first app, Spornado.
Entrepreneurship was calling his name and shortly
after Antoine partnered with his NFL partner, and created Spornado. A social media app that allowed high school athletes to connect to colleges virtually. Antoine grew Spornado and was able to reach a multi-million dollar investment and generate a little over 50,000 student-athlete userbase with over 300 partnerships with high school and college programs. Learning the ins-and-outs of running a startup became an invaluable experience.
Putting all of his experience together he then created Kandiid. His passion and ambition is what the company was built on. A few more accomplishments are listed below:
- Winner of New York State Entrepreneurial Competition 2011
- 2012 Wells Fargo Presidents Award Recipient
- NAACP Award Recipient
- Village Of Nyack Outstanding Citizen Award Recipient
Outside of work, Antoine spends time with his family and working out. His 3 sons keep him active and upbeat!
