Dr. Latame Phillips is a U.S. Army combat veteran, business executive, TEDx speaker, and certified business entrepreneur coach based in San Diego. Born in Mombasa, Kenya and raised in California, he earned his degree from the University of Southern California, followed by an MBA and Ph.D. in Business Entrepreneurship and Business Administration from Trinity University.
After serving in Operation Enduring Iraqi Freedom and rising into corporate wealth management leadership roles, Phillips shifted his focus to empowering entrepreneurs with advanced wealth-building and leadership strategies. A best-selling author and featured TEDx speaker, he is passionate about resilience, financial empowerment, and helping others create lasting impact.
Phillips served on the frontlines as a U.S. Army Combat Veteran. That experience, including the pressure, the accountability, the absolute requirement to think clearly and lead decisively when it counts, doesn't leave you when you take the uniform off. In business, he applies the same framework.
Phillips speaks from his real life experiences. Born in Kenya, raised in a San Diego immigrant community, deployed to a combat zone, built a career in corporate wealth management, earned a PhD, and raised five kids on his own. Every stage he walks onto, he brings all of that with him.
The Black Male Experience Phillips writes and speaks on the Black male experience. Born in Kenya, raised in a San Diego immigrant community, shaped by military combat, corporate boardrooms, and single fatherhood, his life encompasses a range of experiences that rarely get told together, let alone honestly. That's exactly why he does it.
After graduating from USC and completing his military service, Phillips moved into the corporate world, eventually reaching Wealth Management Executive roles at organizations including Halliburton. He served as a Corporate Leadership Advisor across multiple large companies, working at the intersection of business finance, corporate strategy, and organizational leadership.
