About

Growing up in Lake City, South Carolina, James Epps Jr. is no stranger to adversity. Early in his life, he faced significant challenges, including sexual assault, suicidal ideations, academic struggles and poverty. These experiences fueled his resilience and determination to rise above his circumstances.

Through sheer grit and dedication, he joined the Marine Corps, where he would serve 22 years and retire as a Master Gunnery Sergeant—a rank achieved by less than one percent of Marines during their careers. His military career equipped him with invaluable leadership and personal development skills, which he now shares with audiences through dynamic talks.

Today, James is dedicated to inspiring students, staff, and non-profits to develop their own leadership potential and resilience. Known for the passion, energy, and humor he brings to his audiences, James is a impactful Motivational Speaker and Leadership Trainer who makes a transformative impact on schools and non-profit organizations. His presentations empower individuals to embrace their potential and stay focused on their goals.

If you’re looking to empower your students, staff, and transform your organization, James Epps Jr. is the expert to guide you on that journey.
