When I was younger, I didn't just watch TV, I imaginatively put myself in the character roles. Watching TV and Movies were a different thing for me. I was mesmorized. When I was five years old, in a Wayne State University's acting program, I remember singing, "On Broadway", by George Benson. I didn't know what it really meant, but somehow it seemed as though I had been there before. I really loved that song. I would go on to perform in plays every summer with Clyde Harper, a very well known Director in Detroit,MI. As a teenager, I begain to find a second love, Basketball. I started playing basketball in the 10th grade. I truly love basketball with all my heart of hearts, as I do acting. But basketball, saved me. It saved me from horrific possibilities of the inner city life. It taught me everything I needed to know to survive in a carnal way. Basketball is life. I learned how to persevere. I learned how to go after my goals. Basketball really teaches you that in every aspect. After I discovered basketball, I realized that I must do both, act and play Ball. I also had a job since I was 13 at my God-Parents party store, Al's Party Store on Warren and Coplin. Besides picking weeds in very big yard and military cleaning the house, I learned work-ethic early on. Then, I decided I would own a business one day. But that wasn't my focus at that time. I went on to play college basketball for 4 years. I received a BA degree in Radio/Tv/Film with focus on communications. I kept my goals consistant, Sports and Acting.After graduating, I was in a film called Young Boys, INC. Produced by Derrick Carr and Co-Produced by "Everybody Hates Chris" Terry Crews. A couple of us from the film made it and some of us are in the process and some just fell to the wayside. (TK,Rocky,Derrick,Terry,we've made the journey, I am hoping all of us make our mark). Anyway, I tore my ACL in both knees at different times. But in 1999, while playing in the Shocks Women Elite League, I tore my right ACL and decided to focus only on Acting. I retired from teaching in the Detroit Public School's, packed my bags and moved to California, Beverly Hills that is...LOL. Had to say that. Ya'll remember that tv show? I am now living my dreams and also, learning that in order to become a major voice in society, you need power and power is money. Power is also, being on the big screen or tv on a regular basis in a major way. I have also, sparked interest in several business ventures. Just finished my book of poems, writing scripts, high-fashion accessory line,film financer and vending business...etc. I have to have more than one goal. It's important that I use all my talents, that's how one becomes a mogul. I haven't made any money yet, But I am putting the work in. Some of us have it easy and some have to work hard as heck. My faith in God was tested for sure last year and this year. I would never give up on God, but I was close to destruction. I lost seven members of my family, one being my dear mother, who was my number one motivation, my everything, my inspiration. It is still unbelievable. My mother planted that Lord seed. Thank GOOOOD. I remember at the age of seven, having live visions of angels and jesus. My greatgrand mother was a full blooded cherokee Indian. My grandfather use to move objects with his eyes. My mother was highly spiritual. I tried to move things with my eyes, but I can't, lol. God didn't give me that gift. I am a highly spiritual being as well, it's natural for me. My mother gave me my first bible at the age of seven. I read it everyday, not understand anything in it. But I kept reading it. One day while in college, it just opened up like a coloring book. Then, I began to seek knowledge and as God to reveal himself to me in the rawest form. I am not a religous person, however Christ Jesus is my foundation. I am now at a place, where I have to get back to the basics. My career is waiting for me, I am no longer waiting for it. So, with that said, my motto is
