In January 2014, he co-founded and launched T3 Omni, a firm focused on emerging market impact investments. He led projects such as working with a Mynamarbased private equity firm to provide economic opportunities for refugees, consulting with a Nigerian oil company on incorporating improved environmental policies, and consulting with a Chinese primary school system on governance enhancements. He completed his MBA from Emory University in 2015 while working full-time.
In addition, Adam has served as a chairman for a non-profit organization with a nearly $1 MM annual budget, where he led seven committee members in making charity allocation decisions and helped support and evaluate nearly 100 Atlanta-based and global non-profit organizations. In 2016, he was asked to be a Board of Directors member of Sustainable Liberia, a non-government organization that focuses on making a positive impact in Liberia, West Africa. There, he structured a microloan program for villagers and led the research and implementation of an enterprise focused on processing and distributing cocoa from local farmers in rural Liberia to the port of the capital, Monrovia.
