About (request update)

I was blessed though my early years with a sense of wisdom. My childhood has always played a pressing role in the decisions I made in life. From murdered and incarcerated close relatives to Cancer plagued sibling and drug and substance abuse, I have truly been a product of my environment. I have had many episodes with people of the most unfortunate situations and as a God fearing man I have always done what I felt was right which is why I firmly believe I am in the right place at the right time to be and do what needs to be done. I have a general idea of what I am to do; which is to bring forth education, innovation, and inspiration to the masses. Exactly how I still do not know, but to keep pushing on and meeting the people who act as the puzzle pieces to this big pictures.

Current Whereabouts:

I have a very strong and God-sent passion for science of all kinds. However, the community has always been a very significant highlight of my life. As a result I teach martial arts to kids and promote our community with my wife via our local magazine (The BlackTie Magazine).

Life & Professional Aspirations:

I am attempting to bring peace to communities and educate the youth to use their potential to become whatever it is they want to be, as long as it is something that is worth doing. Potential is only powerful if you can actualize that action.

Education (request update)

High School: Jefferson Davis High School in Montgomery, AL class of 2011

Activities & Accomplishments:

Voted Most Intelligent; Art Club; Talent Show Performance; Track and Field.

Best Memories:

Graduation without a doubt. Because I was a child of working parents (Mother was a Baker and Father was and is still a truck driver) I did not have much time with my parents because the sacrificed their life and time working to keep us fed and sheltered. Graduation of High School was a rare occasion where both of my parents and many of my relatives were there and the support of such was overwhelming. Though it may seem baffling, it almost made their absence worth it,

Experience
