Where are you from? Who introduced you to HBCUs?*
I’m from Tuscaloosa, Alabama and I noticed HBCU's through my high school and my high school football coach he played at Jackson State and was an all American linebacker there (Dennis Conner).
Why did you choose an HBCU over a pwi?*
I chose an HBCU over a pwi because i felt that HBCU's gave you a chance to express your thoughts and helped you become very successful.
What is the story of your "experience" at Your HBCU given its heralded status as a stellar and prestigious institution?*
My story of my “experience” is the culture that my school has. I can say that it recognizes the gifts that our students have and it allows us to express them through sports, performance and arts, etc..
"First time" experiences at your HBCU?*
My first time experience at my HBCU was homecoming. The culture behind homecoming is amazing.
Who are the professors that have impacted your life in and out of the classroom? How did they do that?*
I’ve had many professors that had an impact on my life. They really demonstrate how in life nothing is ever given to you, you have to work for it.
