About Me

I'm a critically acclaimed author, featured voice on prominent media outlets, TEDx and event speaker, empowerment partner, and someone whose purpose is to uplift you with my words.

​

I'm passionate about the art of storytelling and have been fortunate enough to apply this passion in being named a Top 100 Contributor with Yahoo Sports, a Top Writer on Medium, and working with Cosmopolitan, the New York Post, Bustle, Blavity, mindbodygreen, Desert Companion magazine, and more publications. 

I hold a masters degree from Valparaiso University and studied Rhetoric: The Art of Persuasive Writing and Speaking through HarvardX.

I Enjoy Volunteering

The need in our communities is great, and I take pride in helping in any way that I can. My favorite opportunities are those that involve at-risk youth. I grew up right outside Chicago, in Gary, IN. As someone who's endured challenging circumstances, it feels like the honor of my life anytime I can serve as a positive example of what's possible for these kids.

I Pursue Other Creative Endeavors

I love working in TV & Film and have appeared in commercials, as a spokesperson, and as a main character in a sitcom. I'm also a bit of a yogi and an avid reader. That's me in a nutshell. Passionate and purpose-driven. I believe that anything you do in love, is done well.
