About Us

FORREST CARTER Founder & Owner | Carter Legacy Enterprises

On March 28, 2026, Forrest Carter celebrates four years in business — a journey that has produced multiple millions in revenue and helped solidify his brokerage as a nationally recognized leader. The brokerage he’s apart of has been honored as Dealer of the Year with AT&T and DirecTV for ten consecutive years across both programs, a distinction reserved for elite performance, operational excellence, and sustained growth.

Born and raised in Canton, Ohio, Forrest spent the first half of his life rooted in the Midwest before relocating to Los Angeles, California, where he graduated from William Howard Taft High School. That blend of Midwest grit and West Coast ambition shaped the foundation of his leadership style (disciplined, driven, and adaptable.)

After high school, Forrest went directly into business and finance, training under respected industry leaders Mo Shah and Sofia Shah (nationally recognized entrepreneurs featured in major business publications.) He sharpened his early skills in the life insurance industry before expanding into multiple sales sectors, including travel, home improvement, and residential services.

Over the last five years in the telecommunications brokerage industry, he has climbed every level — from entry-level representative to business owner — gaining firsthand experience in sales, recruiting, leadership development, and organizational scaling.

Academically, Forrest holds:

  • An Associate’s Degree in Communications from College of the Canyons (Valencia, CA)
  • A Bachelor’s Degree in Communications with a Minor in Psychology from Walsh University (North Canton, OH)

He is currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Theology and Christian Ministry at Franciscan University, reflecting his commitment not only to professional growth but to intellectual and spiritual formation.

Recently married and a proud father of two, Forrest is a man of deep faith, long-term vision, and generational mindset. He believes business is more than revenue… “it is a vehicle for transformation, discipline, and opportunity.”

Having built his organization from the ground up, Forrest is now focused on expansion — creating leadership pathways, developing high-performance teams, and offering real opportunity to individuals willing to commit, grow, and execute.

His mission is simple: Build leaders. Create legacy. Deliver results.
