I’m a writer and creative professional based in Memphis, Tennessee. Right now, I wear a couple professional hats. I manage social media for International Paper. I also manage the South Memphis rapper Lukah. Every Sunday, I host a weekly radio hour on WYXR 91.7FM, THRUST.

Here is a little bit of history...
