I was born in Long Branch New Jersey. During childhood I wanted to become a chef such as Bobby Flay or Martin Yen. I graduated from Johnson and Wales University in 2003 with the expectation of making a career into the foodservice industry. The dream slowly faded away after years of lusterless opportunities that only lead to more experience, but career growth. In 2007 I was hired in the telecommunications industry as a customer service representative. During these last few years the passion for writing grew as I had to learn to express myself in distinct ways. Today I am in pursuit in of a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism this year and I have a blog that has been running for a year. Also my articles have been published in two separate entertainment magazines with an established fan base. In addition to that LIB Magazine appointed their “Video of the Day,” which I search viral content that is SEO friendly. This is in addition to writing for the hip hop section of the magazine where I talk about issues within the hip hop community.

Back in college…. My then-roommate and I used to hang out all the time – until he began dating this girl from a nearby dorm.  I didn’t have a problem with it at all, but the girl seemed very shy and reserved and not able to relax even in comfortable settings.  Soon after, I found out why the girl had a hard time fitting in during a drive into the city: In the middle of a traffic jam, my roommate’s girlfriend had a seizure. My roommate knew exactly what to do and made sure she didn’t swallow her tongue. It…

Upon flipping through the channels, I am sad at the amount of reality television that has persuaded MTV and VH1 to stop playing music videos…. for close to 10 years now, in fact. A typical reality star might receive six figure salaries per episode, but his or her talent is rarely seen outside of the superficial. I don’t get it anymore, and to top that off it seems that reality stars have been trying to break into movies in hopes of becoming A-list Hollywood actors.
