Terrence Evans, the founder, President, and CEO of Totally Joined For Achieving Collaborative Techniques, (TJFACT), was raised on the tough streets of Chicago’s southside by a single mother. Early on, Terrence proved to be an overcomer, becoming the first member in his family to attend college. No stranger to setbacks, Terrence found his first entry into higher learning too tumultuous, ending after one semester at Western Illinois University with a 1.2 GPA. In the spirit of an overcomer, Terrence pivoted to a path that led to the U.S. Army and served his country during the Gulf War in Iraq. This experience transformed Terrence. It provided him with a newfound zest for life that resulted in a passion for serving his nation, community, and mankind. After being honorably discharged from the Army, Terrence returned to college and received a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Regis University in Denver. However, he did not stop there. Terrence furthered his collegiate endeavor and earned a Master of Business Administration from The American Intercontinental University in Illinois.
