About   (request update)
My Interview Question
If there was one thing you could change about me...what would it be and why!?
Current Whereabouts:
I am really trying to "GO GREEN"! I was inspired a few months ago and now I try my best to reduce my "Carbon Footprint". You should look it up...lol! I am also an advocate for HIV/AIDS Awareness, Ending Darfur Genocide, and Keep A Child Alive.
Life & Professional Aspirations:
My life is not perfect. But it is something that I can be grateful for. Professionally I want to be all that I can be. I want to work for a major News Broadcasting System. Whether I'm a News Reporter, Legal Analyst, or News Anchor, I'll be happy. I just want to give the people news that relates to them and their lives.
Education   (request update)
Philander Smith College class of 2010
Undergrad Major: English
Claim To Fame:
As a Freshman, I was a member of the Bless The Mic Street Team. I worked hands-on with the guest speakers who came to speak at Philander. I was also crowned as Mr. Essence 2007-2008, representing the Glamorous ladies of the Gamma Alpha Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, INC. I am the present President of the Panther Programming Union. And I do not intend to stop there. I am also an intern at FOX 16 in Little Rock.
Most Memorable Moment:
I can say that being nominated as Student of the Year for PSC is one of the most exciting. I was up against 2 incredible students. I didn't win, but one of my best friends did and she truly deserved it. Being nominated was still amazing! Another one of my most memorable moment was meeting AJ Calloway! He is a true inspiration to me. He gave me advice on what major to take in order to become a Broadcast Journalist since Philander doesn't offer that particular major. Another most memorable person would have to be the Rev. Jesse Jackson. I have idolized him since elementary. I can remember writing essays on this man and to sit down and have lunch with him is incredible!
High School: West Memphis High School (WMHS) in West Memphis, AR class of 2006
 
Activities & Accomplishments:
President of Student Council, Interim President of Beta Club, Sr. Representative for Mu Alpha Theta, Member of: Interact Club, Spanish Club, Drama Club, Science Club, Tennis Team,
Best Memories:
My Best High School memories are ones that I will cherish forever. I was awarded Principal's Leader of the Year Award because I had 200+ hours of community service in my Senior year alone. I also held the most positions in any organization. I was given this honor by the Mayor of West Memphis and the Principal of WMHS. My next is being voted Friendliest Male of 2005-2006. Lastly, I was voted President of the Student Council. I was only the 2nd African American Male President since the school was integrated in 1972. My aunt was the first African American Female president in 1976.
