I recognize myself as a vessel that has been chosen to advocate on behalf of those who feel voiceless, apathetic, and excluded. I believe that daily, in academic settings, the experience should be transformational and not just transactional.

As a product of a single-parent household, where statistics say one thing, I know all too well that opportunity says differently! After being blessed with athleticism and academic success, I earned both an Athletic and Academic scholarship to Miles College that started my journey and completely changed the trajectory of my life! I believe that every student should have that opportunity.

My fight and advocacy efforts for education extend over some fifteen-plus years, but NOW – No Opportunity Wasted, is the mantra and driving force behind my efforts to become THE #ChangeAgent4District2. Students, Parents and the community alike deserve someone who understands the families in which Birmingham City Schools serve, its beauty, its potential, and its promise. I am the candidate that best represents because I care, I am concerned and I am committed!
