A native New Yorker born in Spanish Harlem and raised in the South Bronx. The youngest of four children. I attended P.S. 154, C.S. 152, Junior High School 123, and Adlai E. Stevenson High School. In 1985 was a member of the first Rap group ever signed to a major record label. The record label was Capitol Records, and the group was known as the Boogie Boys.
A graduate of the Metropolitan College of New York with an Undergraduate Degree in the field of Human Services and a Master of Divinity Degree from New York Theological Seminary. No stranger to church, my mother's eldest brother properly introduced me to the Lord at a very tender age. I was not a (P.K. Preacher's kid but, An U.K. Uncle’s kid). Before my uncle transitioned, he was an Archbishop. A powerfully anointed and gifted vessel who commanded your attention from the time he stood up until he gave the benediction.
