I am here for Networking

About Me

I own a few businesses - the main one is a speaking and workforce training company. I travel alot speaking at conventions, conferences, colleges and high schools. My main topic is Personal Accountability - my theme is 'Turning Obstacles into Opportunities' My entertainment company has signed a Jazz Artist, Hip-Hop company and an R&B singer. We will be holding our own club parties with different acts starting in September in different places around the country. The AMPS Entrepreneurship and leadership Institute is for teenagers ages 12-19. We conduct intensive three day retreats where they come out with revenue generating businesses. I love going to the movies. I love bowling when I have time to do it. Most of all I love meeting new people and creating new relationships because one never knows where it can lead.

My Interests

I am a die hard Dallas Cowboys fan - I love watching them live and also I love the Miami Hurricane Football and Basketball teams along with the Univ. of Maryland men and women basketball teams.

I'd like to meet:

Other business owners or people who have an interest in moving forward with their lives.

Music:

I'm not stuck on any one music. I like Jazz, R&B, certain Hip-Hop, even a little country once in awhile. Gospel - sometimes

Movies:

The Hunt for Red October, Criminson Tide, Scar Face,

Television:

I love the re-runs of Martin. That Boy is Funny as all get out!

Books:

The Law of Success - Napoleon Hill

Heroes:

Tough one...i don't really have a hero. Heroes are for comic books. I have some great friends that I consider mentors like Reggie Moore, Reggie Morton, William Scott, Dwight Stephens, James Mcneil, Coach Herman Boone, Gioia Perry, Willie Jolly to name a few. People who I know will ALWAYS have my back and steer me in the right direction. My rock is my wife Mary Ann! I Always know where she stands and couldn't have opened my business without her in 1993.
