The Come Up
This journey that I’m embarking on is going to help me get through my next phase in college, or life in general. My goal is to build Urban Culture and Affairs, while redefining how black culture (urban culture) is valued. I want to take us to the next level and lead us to take control of our own culture and affairs. It sounds like I have it all together but I don’t. I am setting my foundation and working in progress of re-establishing my career path. I found something that I am truly passionate about and I’m sticking with it. That’s my come up. My come up is the art of my hustle as a Communication Scholar developing my Social Entrepreneurship as a Social Scientist and Engineer; Humanitarian; and Philosopher.

Career Goals

I am building a media empire to disseminate indigenous culture from and throughout the diaspora. I contribute my skills and talent to creating policies, establishing a commonwealth to co-create a community for the development of socioeconomics, business, and performing research for urban culture and affairs. Being an Entrepreneur I don’t see myself working for anyone, so I have to use every opportunity that is available for me to actively learn and be hands on. I’m a in the field type of womb-man. My goal is to take on plenty of work that needs to be done, and do it through charity. You can check out some of my old starter kit shit. I use a variety of language and lingo, so be open minded when your cruising through my domain.

Academic Goals

As a scholar, my vision is to use my independent practice to fill requirements for my research projects using the courses I take for development. This will help me get experience, feedback, and the foundation I need to develop as a practitioner becoming more analytical and increasing my consultancy. It will also help me get started now versus waiting until I graduate to do so. I am interested in independently creating my own internships but gaining some paid internships to develop any interested skills or hobbies while being compensated for my works.

Media Reel
I am a published writer, too. I have been independently writing and publishing since 2014. In 6th grade I was on the newspaper team, The Gresham Griots. I always had a love for literature, so I guess I’ve been publishing since then. Most recently, my works have been featured in South Shore Current, South Side Weekly, TBT News Service, Chicago Street Journal and The Phoenix. I have hosted broadcasts on Windy City Underground (WCUG), and Chicago Land Sports Radio.
