Curry was born on Chicago’s South Side. His high school years were spent in group homes, boy’s homes, and being homeless. Before graduating, he dropped out and joined the Marines. After his service, he said he still found himself wandering. At that point, he decided to get his GED and go to college, which eventually led him to a career in finance and advertising. Since then he has maintained his career and mentoring at-risk youth, as well as being a vocal advocate for underserved groups as it relates to tech startups.
