A board of trustee member at D’Youville College, Ofo sits on the Board of Directors for several non-profit organizations, as well. He’s actively engaged in the community and often speaks to local grade schools in the NYC area on leadership, college planning, entrepreneurship, and life skills. Ofo has given lectures on tech, entrepreneurship, and leadership skills at prestigious institutions like The White House during the Obama Administration, Harvard University, Princeton University, Columbia University, The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, among others.
For a slight curveball, over the last 15 years, he’s moonlighted as a professional actor and model, as well, with lead roles in productions like The Letter, which premiered at The Lincoln Center, and he’s walked New York Fashion Week and been featured on the Today Show numerous times. He’s worked with companies like Nike, ESPN, Facebook, Starbucks, Nationwide, Yahoo, amongst others and has been featured in Harper’s Bazaar and Elle.
Ofo lives by the mantra: “No steps backward; just forward progress.”
