"It's a great medium for people who attended, graduated from, or support our great institutions. Meeting people with common interests and goals who either acheived, are acheiving, or aspire to acheive through the same journey on which we embarked. "
I was born into a multi-cultural family. My mother and father are both from the island of Grenada in the West Indies. I grew up with a strong West Indian background to highlight the typical upbringing in the U.S. The youngest of 4 children and the only boy, I learned a lot of lessons when it sharing and being a part of family. MY family life really helped shape me.
When I was younger, I read a lot of books, all kinds of books, from children, to books on U.S. History, to fiction and autobiography. It helped expand my horizon. As I got older I took a liking to sports and got very involved in following stats and sports history.
Add in a unique group of friends and wild experience in college and you have me in the flesh!
I'm currently living in P.G. County, my home. Working for a local bank as personal banker I also am the co-owner of Collective Solutions Business Group, LLC in the Washington DC area. In addition to my business exploits, I'm also a freelance writer and independent producer. Its been a great ride and I wouldn't have had it any other way. Much love to Morgan State and to all other fam (Pershing and otherwise) at HBCUs everywhere. I'm down for meeting fellow HBCU folks undergrad or alumni, because I'm all about networking. Attending a black college is one of the best decisions I ever made in my life. Holla at me on the flipside!

Morgan State U. '05
Life & Professional Aspirations:
-Become the president and owner of my own media and communications group, highlighting sports in the professional college and HBCU arenas.
-Under that umbrella start a fashion line and record label.
-Finish AND publish my first book by 2009 (I'm on track)
-Be married someday with a good and healthy family life.
Always on the run and being productive. Also taking the time out to listen to people. Being down for whatever, whenever and just enjoying my college experience, something that I would not undervalue for the world Taking as life as it is. It can be ugly but so beautiful at the same time and so many of us tend to not pay attention to that.
