About the Author

I was born in Washington, DC at greater southeast community hospital on April 5, 1983. I am the youngest of four siblings on both my mother and father sides of the family. I was raised by my great great-aunt, Pearl Levy, in Gleneden, Maryland. The first emotion I remember feeling as a child was the day the little boy was taken out of my household. I never understood why it bothered me so much until I became much older when found out that little boy was my brother. My childhood was just a bunch of feelings like there was so much I didn’t know, couldn’t ask, or purely feeling as I didn’t belong. My childhood memories were of very few happy days mainly praying to discover who I really was and why I was having such a hard time with my identity. That’s when I discovered church, writing, and music—the three things that kept me feeling peaceful and in a world of my own happiness.
