About Me

What's happenin everybody, I'm from Philly but am in Baton Rouge right now and i'm not really feelin it all that much, but i am trying to make do with it for now.I am that guy that really enjoys peace and quiet one minute then ready to do a tad bit of partying the next ;).I'm into alot of different things, i draw, i skate, i listenin to all types of music but my first love is R&B ( Most guys are just scared to admit it). If there is a sneaker/tennis shoe( whatevea floats your boat) store around best beleive i will be there, my number one hustle should be selling footwear, i have so many. My focus these days is to inspire kids, cheesy but true, so i have been able to do some of that with my previous job here in Baton Rouge. Ya'll be easy, peace...

My Interests

I skate alot, on Saturday's and Sunday's you can usually find me at the roller skating rink trying and practicing new tricks. Other than that i LOVE sushi preferably Hello Sushi and my peoples from baton rouge know what i am talking about, that's the goodness.

I'd like to meet:

There's alot of people i would like to meet, I'm very retrospective on this topic though. First i would like to meet Sydney Poitier and ask how he pioneered though a time where it was difficult , for his resilience to continue making movies and inspiring others in a time where being blacklisted discouraged all from producers on down.Mother Theresa is someone i admire, her service to the world! made it possible for national service/global service to be accepted and performed in a loving manner, her quotes inspire me "It is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing. It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving" You can't hate on that brotha!!! At the end of the day there are plenty of people i would like to meet, so i am open to everything...
