Edward Okpa is a Businessman and Former Dallas Mayor candidate. He is the principal of The OKPA Co., LLC, specializing in commercial real estate appraisal and international trade consulting. Ed’s father advised him, “When you get to America, it’s not about your degree, not about the money you make. It’s about relationships.” In 2003, Ed ran for Mayor of Dallas, emphasizing public safety, budget management, job creation, neighborhood revitalization, international trade, and education. He began his U.S. journey as a busboy at the Hilton Anatole in Dallas, a role he humorously misunderstood as “boss-boy,” thinking he would be supervising others. In 2021, Governor Greg Abbott appointed him to the State Securities Board, recognizing his expertise in real estate and finance. Ed Okpa’s journey exemplifies dedication to community involvement and public service. Edward Okpa continues to serve as a member of the Texas State Securities Board, a position to which he was appointed by Governor Greg Abbott in April 2021 for a term set to expire on January 20, 2027.

When we started The Mary J. Blige Breakthrough Experience, what began as a behind-the-scenes look at The Queen of Hip-Hop Soul’s Breakthrough Experience Tour quickly evolved into an award-winning documentary and industry-defining moment. Featuring legendary figures such as Oprah Winfrey, Elton John, Jimmy Iovine, Wyclef Jean, Angie Martinez, Andre Harrell, and more, each offered powerful insights into Blige’s influence and enduring impact. This project provided a rare glimpse into Mary’s journey—her personal struggles, triumphs, and lasting legacy. My team and I conducted in-depth interviews with some of the most influential voices in music and culture. Interviewing Oprah and these icons was an unforgettable experience—one that added rare depth to Mary’s story. This groundbreaking experience combined live music, exclusive behind-the-scenes content, and next-level interactivity, giving audiences a front-row seat to Mary’s world like never before. From her classic hits to intimate personal revelations—including the stories behind her scars—she opened up in a way she never had before. We captured not just her strength but the healing power of music, showing how every beat, lyric, and emotion has shaped her journey. It’s hard to believe it’s been 20 years—but the music, the passion, and the impact remain timeless.
