We had the good fortune of connecting with Tyrone Wigfall and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tyrone, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Working within the medical field as a CNA and Caregiver I felt that I could contribute more to this new generation of care providers.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Despite my relatively short 4-year tenure in the medical field, I co-founded a school with a vision to provide an affordable educational experience. The journey was far from easy, but we persisted and, against all odds, we grew. We don’t just see ourselves as a school; we’ve evolved into a vibrant community. As our students complete their journey with us, we hope they leave with not just knowledge, but also a network of friends for future collaborations.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
My best friend lives in Phoenix. But in this given scenario, we would look up a place we’ve never heard of and probably have a couple of margaritas. Brunch would be in the morning, maybe at a Farm! You know at would be relaxing, WAIT … or at the Biltmore area! Sushi would probably be on the menu for a couple of days, along with other delicious cuisines. I’m sure I would be trying and failing to cook. We’re in Phoenix, so swimming will be daily.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
There are so many that have made this once an idea become a reality. Outside of my spiritual advisers. The book, The E-Myth by Michael Gerber played an integral part in me stepping out and evaluating my motivation and the reality of starting a business, especially with little capital. I must mention my family and friends. They donated money, supplies, along with their talents. I am forever grateful!
