Miyaz Ansari

Co-Founder / Chief Executive Officer

Tampa, FL

What's up everybody? My name is Miyaz Ansari, and I am the Chief Executive Officer at Back on Track America. I started volunteering when I was just a little boy, and now I cannot go one week without it! Also, volunteering is more than just packing bags and waking up early in the morning to go to events; it's about putting a smile on others and making someone's day by giving food and items to those in need. Volunteering has changed my life for the better. A little about me is that I love to work out (I bench 225lbs), spend time with friends, and drink boba.
