My name is Sheldon Smith. One thing I have learned in my life. It is not easy to speak In my early life, I had speech impediment barrier. I had to practice every day to speak to be heard in life. Eventually all that practicing transformed me to be a speaker who could encourage Native American Indian Youth to THINK, SPEAK, MOVE and RISE. 

One of the many topics I address to youth is self-awareness can exist in anyone. I emphasize techniques to help build resiliency especially, to empower individuals with principles to set the standard. 

In the last decade, I have built the passion to provide services to Native American Indian Youth. I truly believe we are shaped by how we Think, Speak, Move and Rise. They affect everything we do in life; our challenges, situations, and lifestyle to grow as individuals: mentally, socially, spiritually, and physically.
