My name is Sebastian Uzcategui, and my life has been shaped by a relentless pursuit of purpose, freedom, and impact. I was born in Venezuela and moved to Florida at the age of 3, carrying with me not just the hopes of my family—but the weight of their sacrifice.
As an only child, I felt that responsibility deeply, and I’ve spent my life turning that pressure into purpose.

My name is Sebastian Uzcategui, and my life has been shaped by a relentless pursuit of purpose, freedom, and impact. I was born in Venezuela and moved to Florida at the age of 3, carrying with me not just the hopes of my family—but the weight of their sacrifice.
As an only child, I felt that responsibility deeply, and I’ve spent my life turning that pressure into purpose.

I discovered entrepreneurship early. At 14, I started studying the stock market. At 16, I launched my first business. And by 18, I founded Stocks University—a platform that would go on to educate over 1,200 students in financial literacy, trading, and empowerment. But success didn’t come overnight. I spent years building in obscurity, facing setbacks, dead ends, and what felt like endless grind.

Then, everything changed. I found my voice—and stepped into it.

After struggling for years to grow through traditional marketing methods, it was public speaking that transformed everything. Through a handful of key events, I was able to quadruple my business and scale it to multiple six figures. Not through ads, not through algorithms, but by standing in rooms, telling the truth, and serving people with integrity and clarity.

That experience didn’t just grow my business—it reshaped my mission.

Since then, I’ve had the honor of speaking on platforms like the United Nations, TED Talks, and alongside respected spiritual leaders like Apostle Axel Sipach and Jordan Brice. I’ve spoken at over 300 events, including churches, seminars, schools, workshops, and conferences, sharing stages with people of influence and purpose. But no stage compares to the one built on truth and service.

Now, I’m committed to helping others do the same. Through SpeakUp.Express, I empower aspiring speakers and entrepreneurs to refine their voice, step into their authority, and reach global platforms—just as I did. Not for applause, but for impact.

What drives me isn’t performance. It’s integrity, faith, and the belief that anyone—regardless of background—can rewrite their story if they’re willing to speak it out loud. I don’t teach from theory. I teach from the trenches—from personal triumph, spiritual conviction, and a track record of transformation.

Whether in finance, faith, or business, my goal is simple: to awaken potential, elevate voices, and ignite purpose. If my story teaches anything, it’s this—your greatest obstacle might just be the stage you haven’t stepped on yet.
