2. Never forget where you came from… Born in Atlanta, Ga. on Fort McPherson Army Base. Grew up in Brooklyn, NY Moved to Woodbridge, VA my junior year of high school (2001). At the time, I despised my mother for making me move from the only place I knew; making me move in the middle of my high school career, for making me start all over! What I didn’t know was that this would be the best decision she has ever made for me. Who would’ve thought Virginia would be the place I’d meet people who would change my life! “Mommy knows best”!
3. Just “Potential”? In high school, I was always labeled the one with “potential”. I was never at the top of my class, although my teachers said I had the “potential”. I was never the STAR of the basketball team, however, my coaches said I had the “potential”.
