Personal Statement

Being a man of color, diagnosed with ADHD and Autism, and losing both of my parents at a young age, I persist through the adversity in my personal life as a testament to all those who have experienced the same things and to offer support to others when they face challenges. As a leader, I advocate for other students of color and for those who can't speak for themselves, and I work to change the meaning of leadership. I want everyone to know that they have someone who will fight for them when the going gets tough. On campus, I am a mentor in the Black Male Achievement Challenge and a member of the campus NAACP and Latino Student Association, and off campus I am on staff at Arkansas Boys State, contributing to the civic education for young men learning to lead in their communities, our state, and our nation. As I grow older and wiser, I see the changes that need to be made, and realize that change starts with me.
