From Curiosity to Calling: Jovan's Journey into HTM
At Elevate HTM, stories like Jovan's
remind us why this work matters.
Javon E., a student from International High School of New Orleans, discovered the HTM industry at a YouthForce NOLA and Junior Achievement event and it changed everything.
With support from programs like mock interviews and a Trimedx internship and mentorship from Bryant Hawkins, Jovan grew in confidence, found his purpose, and even earned a college scholarship.
His journey is proof: when students are given access and belief, lives are transformed.

We create hands-on experiences, provide career pathways, and foster mentorship within the Healthcare Technology Management industry. Showing just how powerful the intersection of technology and healthcare can be.

"Good to see. Being from South Louisiana, this kind of career mentorship and direction were severely lacking in the public school system when I was in high school. It's good to see that changing, and good to see someone making a difference."
"Awesome! Keep inspiring our next generation"
"It was an honor to have you, Glenn, Zachary and Lynesha on our campus. The feedback from the students was positive and their minds were definitely opened to a whole new career path. Thank you again for giving your time to our students! You are all welcome back any time!"
"Not only was it FUN to be a part of the morning session, it was encouraging to me. I was thrilled to get to talk to some intelligent and motivated young people. Their questions showed a real understanding and enthusiasm for HTM."
