Today the P.E.A.C.E project has grown to over 1200 students and the program will soon be nationwide.  The project is raising the standards for respect through peer counseling for kids who have been victims of bullying and kids who feel they do not fit in.

Born and raised in Toledo, Ohio, Mr. Geha obtained his Bachelor of Arts from the University of Toledo.

Throughout his remarkable career, Mr. Geha has been an active member of his community and recognized worldwide for his initiative and devotion to the industry.

Looking back, Mr. Geha attributes his success to his experiences, his family, his faith, and staying passionate in all his endeavors.  Mr. Geha says he has been blessed, he loves doing what he is doing and feels this is just the beginning.
