The track is my stage! My high school track coach, Eugene Thomas, who I affectionately refer to as Coach T, would tell me that all the time because he knew me. Coach T knew my passion was for performing, so when he saw that I was struggling or facing a challenge on the track he would bring my awareness back to my passion for acting. It worked!

With a lot of hard work, sacrifice, focus, and determination Coach T and I were able to turn what I was born with into a way to pay for my college education and a way to earn a living.
