Education:

North Carolina A&T State University, BS in Industrial Technology with a concentration in Graphic Communications

HLI Experience:

I have been a mentor since 2003, and I think HLI is the best program I have ever seen to help students prepare for life after high school. If I would have had access to this type of program when I was in high school, I could have saved my parents some money.  It is my pleasure to work with such a wonderful group of young people.

Advice/Life Philosophy:

· Trust God and give your best in everything you do. Never be afraid to take an unconventional path because someone else won’t go with you; Think outside of the box!

· Take a Bible to school with you, you’ll need it!
