When I started ARIAD Psychological Services, my goal was simple: to help individuals and families gain clarity, understanding, and access to the support they need to thrive. As a first-generation Nigerian American raised by a single mother, I learned early the importance of perseverance, community, and creating opportunities where barriers exist.
Today, I am incredibly honored to share that I have been named a 2026 Dallas Business Journal 40 Under 40 honoree.
This recognition represents far more than my individual efforts. It reflects the support, encouragement, and belief of so many people along the way. I am especially grateful to my husband, Ibie Coral Aguese , whose unwavering support has helped make this journey possible; to my mother, whose sacrifices, strength, and determination laid the foundation for everything I have achieved; and to City Council Woman Dr. Deyanira NevĆ”rez MartĆnez for her nomination and for believing in my work and impact within our community.
My hope is to continue expanding access to high-quality psychological assessment services, increasing awareness and understanding of neurodiversity, and helping individuals and families feel seen, supported, and empowered to reach their full potential.
Thank you to everyone who has trusted, supported, and encouraged me throughout this journey. I am excited for what lies ahead.
