D'Artagnan et la glorie ont le même linceul.

About Me

I hail from the very diverse and wide open city of San Francisco and Oakland, CA. Went to "Tha House" and refined my passion for life. I recently moved from Fort Lauderdale, FL and currently live in Washington, D.C. I predicate my life on becoming "a person for others" via mentoring and staying on the perverbial grind. I am also an avid traveler and have been blessed to be able to visit various parts of this ever shrinking world.I think this quote best sums up my life's experience: "I was born not to make it, but I did; with the tribulations of a ghetto kid. Still I Rise"-2PacStay strong, and blessed. ..
