ABOUT
Valentine's purpose is to support educators in sharing positive messages with their students.
Anthony Valentine, known as Valentine to his friends and supporters, started his entrepreneurial journey by selling custom t-shirts outside his grandmother's residence. His talent was soon recognized when American recording artist Kendrick Lamar sported one of his custom-made denim vests. Since then, Valentine has been constantly exploring his interests and developing his talents to positively impact the world.
Valentine is a multi-talented individual who is an author, director/writer, top youth motivational speaker, and a pier-dm EMT with a degree in Biology. He is also the founder of KultureMAG, which is an SEL resource designed to help students develop their individual and societal identity. Valentine's main focus is to save student lives, one story at a time, and has done so with over 30,000 students across 50+ High Schools, Middle Schools, and Colleges.
Valentine's messaging of resilience, his experiences as an EMT in the inner city, and his work in media provide students with an engaging, heartfelt, captivating, and relatable experience. As someone who has faced many challenges in life, including growing up without a father and dealing with anxiety, Valentine's motivational speaking has the power to heal. He offers himself as a vessel and an example.
Valentine and his team strive to bring Kulture to the world through an educational lifestyle brand. The brand aims to motivate, inspire, and provide intellectual, social, and emotional content to the current and future generations.
"We brought Anthony into our district to talk to students about becoming attuned to their individual activity in order to shape a school culture where everyone feels welcomed and an equal part of. We had no idea that of the impression that Anthony would leave with students. His talk touched upon identity, positive self-image, and healthy mental health. We would bring Anthony back into our school for another talk in a heartbeat." - L. Frank

TESTIMONIALS
"Valentine has tailored the entire presentation to our school community. He visited the school previously to the presentation date in order to understand our building-student body in general. He also stayed for the four lunch periods after his pres. to interact with all students. Highly recommend him."

"Mr. Valentine was excellent. He hosted two 60 min. sessions. One with our middle school and one with our upper school. His content was engaging and students felt an instant connection with him. His communication was superb and he also worked with me to create a personalized video for our school that got people excited. If you are looking for a speaker that can successfully engage a very apathetic campus community then he is the right fit for you. As a school that struggles with addressing mean behavior, empathy, respect, and its connection to diversity, Mr. Valentine did an amazing job of connecting all these areas and did in a way that felt organic. I would highly recommend him!!!!" - Christina A.
