I'm honored to share that I've been named a 2025 Rising Star by the Living Classrooms Foundation.

This award recognizes young leaders for their achievements and commitment to giving back—and I couldn't be more proud to be among them.

As part of this distinction, I've committed to raising funds to support Living Classrooms' mission: to empower youth and adults in the Baltimore and Washington, D.C. areas through hands-on education, workforce development, health and wellness, and community safety programs. These programs bring learning to life and create real, lasting change.

My involvement with this work began through my connection with Harlem Lacrosse, a powerful partner of Living Classrooms. Every day, I see how their programs transform the lives of the kids I work with. They provide mentorship, structure, opportunities, and most importantly—hope.

I truly believe I was put on this earth to help others. This is where that mission begins.

Please consider supporting me in this effort—not just to honor this recognition, but to invest in the future of the young people who deserve every opportunity to thrive.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me. Any donation will make a difference.
