I started at an early age attending church with my family. I have always been involved in school projects and youth activities. One of my goals is writing so I began getting involved in my skills that lead me to B.I.G. Blacks in Government. I would love for you to know that I won regional in Colorado. I am now Com for national. I will be leaving Denver to go to Atlantic City, NY on August 24, 2016. I am asking for your prayers and support at this event. I know that I was raised in a very good community. I am currently attending Denver School of The Arts and some of my hobbies and activities that I enjoy doing are being involved in church activities such as, working as a youth usher, a youth greeter and sing- ing in the youth choir. I am Currently working on a Black History Play that I am writing. I love attending open mic night where I can present my original work and express my love for poetry. Other activities that I accomplished were being apart of the Big Hair Bigger Dreams journalism and social justice camp. Also I was a published author in Calliope Magazine in 2013 and 2015 and have consistently been published in many online venues.
