我们的故事

在弗林特长大绝对是震撼人心的经验。你听到很多关于弗林特和逆境的消极经历弗林特的很多学生,但是你不要听到积极性。所以你不听说的指导和领导在燧石。在弗林特北部高中,这是一个黑人学校。很多人有类似的背景,很多人在单亲家庭长大,收入低,第一代,这些都是我们认为是正常的。这是弗林特北部高中。这是我毕业的高中。嗯,它实际上在二千零一十三年关闭,我于二千零一十二年毕业。主要是它帮助了我与毅力。所以我们有很多挑战,大多数时候我们是弱者,我们是资金不足。 A lot of times, we had to fight for what we wanted. That really instilled a lot of values in me and so it showed me that no matter what your circumstances are, no matter what the situation is, you gotta stay optimistic. When I was in high school a lot of people would tell me sports was my way out, that had to be my way out. I didn’t necessarily agree with it even though I was an athlete, I wanted to prove myself and I wanted to show them that like academics could be my way out as well and it could be the way out for a lot of other students. My drive for helping other people definitely started at home. My mother and grandmother, they used to drop everything just to make sure everybody else was okay. I knew he was gonna be special cause I used to test him when he was little and I saw things in him. When he chose Oakland and he went up there and I saw some of the things that he was involved in, then I saw the way the people up there gravitated toward him. That’s what I’m really proud of also, the way he’s able to encourage others and his future is gonna take him a long, long way. I think he’s gonna be very successful whatever he decides to do, wherever he'll go. So he’s on his way, he’s on that journey now. The energy in Detroit is electric so there are new businesses open, students everywhere, downtown is always buzzing. When my mom found out that I received this position, she was ecstatic. So I could actually hear her on the phone, jumping in the background. She was so proud of me because she knew that this is something that I wanted and that also that this job fit who I was as a person. Growing up in Flint, Michigan is really what inspired me to go this route. Students face a lot of challenges, but there are some of the most talented individuals that I know that come up from Flint. Just to know there are people in their corner to help them achieve their dream and achieve their goals was the most important thing for me. I knew that my passion was within education so understanding that I needed to follow my passion in order to show younger students to follow their passions. Not just to do what everybody else wants you to do but do what you love. So that was kinda the turning point for me. What I really hope to accomplish is if a student hears my name come up, somebody has a story to tell, a great story, about where I’ve come from, things that I’ve been through and how I made it all work. So it’s really important to show that whether a student is a minority or not that there is hope. I want show that there is hope in this route. If you dream, you can achieve it and so you just gotta keep working toward your goals and the most important thing is to keep going.
