I have deep roots in the Atlanta community. My father was born and raised here in West Atlanta near Mozley Park and his parents were both long time educators throughout the 60's, 70's, and 80's in various schools including Washington High School and Clark College (AUC). My Grandfather attended Friendship Baptist and my Grandmother and father are still members of St. Pauls Church on Peyton Road. Though I travel and could live anywhere, I always say that my neighborhood is one of the only places I could ever live in America. I just love our community and believe in it deeply!
