Education (request update)

Howard University class of 2013

Undergrad Major: English

Claim To Fame:

My claim to fame is that I have been blessed by God with the gift of song and have cultivated an incredible gift of writing. I believe that my voice is an instrument and my writing inspires and moves in a tremendous way.

Most Memorable Moment:

My most memorable college moment was meeting Professor Tony Medina; creative writing professor of Howard University and poet. His work has been an inspiration to me and I am grateful to have made his acquaintance. He has been my cheerleader and greatest motivator in regards to resurrecting my writing. I am eternally grateful for his impact in my life.

High School: Largo High School in Largo, MD class of 2001

Activities & Accomplishments:

In high school I was a member of the world-renowned Largo High School choir and the Entrepreneurship Strand--a program designed to train and teach students about business ownership.

Best Memories:

My best high school memories without a doubt would be being a member of the most phenomenal choir under the leadership of Jeremiah Murphy. Another memory of high school would be during my junior year when I wrote an original song with my friend Rasheeda Smith and we had the opportunity to perform during our school's "Apollo Night" talent show. Although we did not win the competition, I had the best time of my life writing and taking part in the production of an original song.
