A true renaissance man, Raimondo’s passion for personal enlightenment led him to pursue entrepreneurial endeavors. He has owned a jazz club, a hairstyling salon and a school for music, dance and drama called Rhythm World. To motivate others to live their potential, Dr. Raimondo co-founded Accelerating Evolution, LLC, a consulting firm committed to helping clients’ perform better in academics, sports, business and in their personal lives. He is also the founder of Community Fusion, Inc., a non-profit that encourages exposure of student art and involvement between schools and their communities. Part of the proceeds from the sale of his book will go to Community Fusion, Inc. Dr. Raimondo currently lives in Newark, N.J., where he is involved in Tres Dias of Northern New Jersey, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping people achieve a personal relationship with Christ.

Raimondo hopes that for his students, the lessons don’t end when they leave his classroom. Just as the question he wrote on his own chalkboard challenged him to find a higher purpose, he hopes that his students and readers carry with them the greater pursuit of knowledge, long after they finish the final page.
