Introduction A native of Detroit, I currently work as a Software Engineer at Microsoft. I created The SuperSpade in Nov ‘05. In Apr ‘05, I graduated from the University of Michigan with a B.S.E. in Computer Engineering and a B.S.E. in Computer Science in Engineering. While at the UM, I served as Chairman of HEADS (Here Earning A Destiny through Honesty, Eagerness, and Determination of Self), UM’s Black male support network. Outside of school, I worked as Youth Organizer, Workshop Lead, and Keynote Speaker at the Black Men Taking Responsibility: A Plan for Action symposium in Detroit in Nov ‘04, and as a volunteer organizer and contributor to Detroit’s Partners for Success program. Currently, I'm actively presenting to groups around the country, and continually doing workshops and presentations at educational, professional, social, political, and spiritual gatherings, speaking to groups on topics including focus, social consciousness, and strategies to achieve academic excellence. Most importantly, my mama loves me.
