The Man In The Mirror Pt. 1

On May 12th I had the opportunity to be a guest panelist at a male minority initiative conference hosted by Houston Community College. We talked to the young men about life, being a man, success and obstacles while growing up. Based on everything that we had to say to the young men as examples of success and role models the biggest thing that they must realize is that change in life starts with the man in the mirror.

Going Back Home


On January 28th I was the presenter at the 1st Annual Christa McAuliffe Day. It was held at Christa McAuliffe Middle School where I attended as an eighth grader in 1987. I was able encouraged the entire eight grade class to realize that they have purpose in life.


The presentation was filled with energy, excitement and enlightenment about living filled with purpose and a willingness to succeed.


I am receiving an award from Principal Sharon Delesbore of Christa McAuliffe. Principal Delesbore and I grow in the community where Christa McAuliffe is located and it special for me to go back to the middle school that I attended to encourage the students to be determined and focused in life.
