Nelson Telemaco

Nelson Telemaco is a living witness to the power of resilience. Growing up in the Bronx, NY, he has seen and experienced many of the challenges that perpetuate cross-generational struggles. He was blessed with the opportunity to go away for school and earn a degree in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania with a concentration of studies in Marketing and Communications. While climbing up the corporate ladder - building and leading businesses for some of the world’s largest financial firms - he honed his skill at solving complex problems and de-risking the world around him and his clients. Nelson has remained focused on building and developing leaders and businesses of high impact in the marketplace, the boardroom, and in communities often neglected. Today, Nelson is a startup founder, board director, investor, speaker, and consultant/mentor focused on driving impact for more meaningful results for companies, nonprofits, and individuals alike. Nelson is blessed with a wonderful wife and 2 amazing children who also love God and other people and will continue that legacy of faith, hard work, and compassion instilled from a young age by his parents.
