My road in life has been direct.
Became a GSU tour guide and an Incept New Student Orientation Leader my freshman year at GSU.
Became the marketing director for Infinite Appeal Fashion Organization and a Brother of Alpha Kappa Psi Professional Business Fraternity.

Graduated from GSU with my BBA in Marketing and certificate in advertising.
Started working for Eaton as a direct hire for the technical sales leadership development program & moved to Phoenix, AZ.
Rolled off the LDP program and was promoted to a project manager for the lighting division. Relocated back to ATL and got promoted again to my current role.

Advice for Getting Started
Here's the first step for high school students
Networking & experience are key. Get involved on campus, be the lead of a group project, work a job while being a full time student, get an internship, volunteer in your community. Start building your resume in a variety of ways. All of this will lead to valuable experience that will prepare you more for life after college and you will be able to build a network through your involvement. It’s not just about what you know, it’s also about who you know.
