Why an HBCU? I wanted an institution that was created for me that also had a long tradition of producing outstanding male leaders. Morehouse was both.

How did it shape you? Every day, I strive to uphold the five tenets of being a Morehouse Man: academic excellence, elocutionary skills, high moral values, social commitment, and belief in a higher power.

Most significant memory? My fondest memories are of the time I spent working at my alma mater as a recent graduate and post graduate school, mentoring young men and shaping their career trajectory.
