At the peak, the air thins and time stretches. Every climb demands patience and every pause teaches. Progress may not follow a straight line, but it brings us exactly where we are meant to be. Altitude reveals who was built for the climb.

Not every companion on the climb was meant to reach the summit. Some faded quietly. Others taught me the value of silence, distance, & discernment.

Still, I’m grateful. For the strength to keep ascending. For the clarity that comes with altitude. And for the reminder that integrity travels light.

It was an honor to attend the Investiture of Dr. Said L. Sewell as President of Morris College. The overwhelming love and support he received truly reflect the profound impact Dr. Sewell has had on so many lives. Thank you for allowing me to be part of this beautiful chapter in your journey. 🙌🎓

"When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.'"

Exceptional leaders thoroughly investigate and refrain from taking sides or making decisions until they have gathered all the facts. It's important to remember that some individuals are skilled at making others appear unfavorable.
