Isaiah Thomas:

Motivational Speaker/





Isaiah Thomas is a native of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania who was born to a gang member as a mother and a father whom he never knew or met. His 17-year old biological mother placed him in foster care at the tender age of 4 as a result of unfortunate and harsh circumstances that made parenting difficult. The trauma of separation from his mother and the absence of a loving father caused Isaiah to have frequent disciplinary issues that culminated in him being placed in alternative schools throughout most of his childhood. Far worse, Isaiah frequently involved himself in violent crimes as early at 10 years old, and his criminal behavior increased and became more grave as he grew older such as: armed robbery and kidnapping to name a few. Consequently, Isaiah’s criminality led to his graduation from programs for the problematic into prisons for the convicted in numerous cycles of recidivism.

Isaiah’s life made a radical turn while an inmate at the Turbeville Correctional Institution. This inward change was wrought in Isaiah by embracing his Christian Faith and bettering himself through the numerous programs and classes that his correctional institution had to offer. His diligence caused him to achieve an Associate Degree from Saved By Grace Bible College. Eventually, the staff of Turbeville Correctional Institution began to realize Isaiah’s transformation and made him a peer mentor to other inmates in his prison.

​Isaiah has involved himself in numerous positive endeavors since his release. He is a spoken word poet known as Eye T who has performed along District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia areas. He also is the Chief Executive Officer of IT’s A Deal INC : an entrepreneurial endeavor he created that has expanded beyond his native Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to include private investors in New York, Charlotte, and Miami, Florida. Despite Isaiah’s Thomas painful and troubled past, his life demonstrates that anyone can change because he is an example of one who has been radically transformed for the pursuit of success in life.
