He fought poverty and earned a scholarship for a Master’s Degree in Europe, where he lived for 3 years. Then later on all started when he moved to California, earned a Doctoral Degree in International Business from the San Diego University, and started building his career as a business professional working for big corporations, also becoming a social media influencer and a model.

From volunteer work helping children in Africa, to being a philanthrope in his home country Brazil, to being daily involved helping the homeless community in the USA, Diogo knows where he came from and now wants to give it back. Everyone has dreams but dreams are achieved not only by dreaming but actually working for it. The people who achieve their dreams are the ones who devote their life to that dream. Entrepreneur and Model Diogo Custodio is one such personality who has achieved his childhood dream of becoming a successful person through his sheer determination and hard work. He is proud to state that he cleaned public restrooms for a long time before becoming a business director in big corporations. Young entrepreneurs and social media influencers should learn from success stories.
“Back in Brazil I always used to dream of becoming a successful person one day so that I can fulfill not only mine but also my family’s dreams. When I came to California I worked hard and tirelessly in the pursuit of my dream. To all the young influencers out there it is my appeal that never back down. Even when all the odds are against you, keep working hard and be determined to get to the top. If you work honestly in pursuit of your dreams, success will only be a matter of time. Also, be compassionate, kind and give back” shares Entrepreneur Diogo Custodio.
