Bio and Experience

Are you talking about Consci8us with the 8?

Yes! I'm an inspirational hip-hop artist, youth educator and speaker from Oakland, CA in the San Fransisco Bay Area. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Sacramento State University with a degree Sociology 18' and I'm also alumni of Cosumnes River College with 4 degrees, 3 being in the social sciences. I'm a business and brand owner, with the Stay Consci8us brand, I was the youngest African-American male supervisor with the City of Sacramento for Youth Civic Engagement, and I recruit educators for underserved schools throughout Northern California, among other things.

Being born and raised in Oakland, California, I recognize that I am fortunate to have overcome the pressures and challenges of living in the inner-city with my mom and older brothers. I am committed to sharing my gift/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!

Music, media and education are a few of the tools I use to do this work!
