I’m a story teller that won’t lie to you.  If you don’t want to hear the truth, don’t ask me!

Born and raised in Hampton, Virginia to parents who actually stayed together until death did them part.  I am their youngest son of the three boys they presented to the world.

I was voted the class clown in high school while simultaneously being recognized as the wisest guy around.  This dichotomy of personality is one I am proud to own to this very day!

A political science major  and graduate of Norfolk State University, I had the pleasure and amazingly secure job of teaching the City of Norfolk’s worst behaved students for six awesome years.  (They behaved well for me.)

I left teaching for the freedom and the much wider earning potential that barbering offered.  Servicing the largest Navy base in the entire world, I can proudly say that I am a super successful barber with clients that are all over the globe!

I’m a husband to one and a father to five.   They motivate all my moves.  Not providing for them is my biggest fear!

A nationally recognized spoken word poet, I love words and how they help me paint.  Yes, I am an artist that uses words to paint amazingly vivid pictures.  Pictures I pray that you’ll always want to see!
