Bio and Experience

I'm a community-based rap artist, educator and professional speaker from Oakland, CA in the San Francisco Bay Area. I was born and raised in Oakland, California, with my older brothers by our single mother. I'm blessed to have overcome many of the pressures and challenges of living in the inner-city to now be living a conscious lifestyle. I don't take it for granted, many of my peers had different outcomes in life. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Sacramento State University with a degree in Sociology in 2018 and I'm also alumni of Cosumnes River College with 4 degrees with honors. I am a traveling performer, speaker, and educator that is committed to sharing my talent of speaking and performing to inspire others to find their purpose and path in life. I empower others to overcome obstacles like I did!

I am using music, media and education as tools to change the world!
