About   (request update)
My Interview Question
How can we help each other to make a difference for the better (job info, preserving the HBCUs, and make ourselves better as a whole)?
Life & Professional Aspirations:
Obtain a Job as the main Sports Anchor/Reporter Make my way to ESPN, FSN, Headline News...somewhere on the national level
Education   (request update)
Southern University and A&M College class of 2009

Claim To Fame:
Having the opportunity to attend Southern University was the best honor. However, my claim to fame would be three things: 1) Playing football for the Jags under Head Coach Pete Richardson. 2) Being selected as the Student VJ for the BET Black College Tour for Southern University and having my commercail played across the nation... 3) Doing sideline reports for ESPNU campus Connection week for Southern University Basketball.
Most Memorable Moment:
There are so many memorable moments from my days at Southern. Being involved with the NAACP, SGA and playing football would stand out the most. Having the opportunity to play in the Bayou Classic for three years and just bettering myself on the educational basis of an HBCU was the best overall
