A proud native of Buffalo, NY. After graduating from the Buffalo Arts Academy I furthered my education at 1 of Charlotte NC’s Historically Black College & Universities; Johnson C. Smith University. Today I am privileged to be the proud founder and CEO of Canna-House; WNY's premier cannabis club. Where our mission is to positively impact the quality of life of cannabis consumers; via events, products, content, advocacy and lifestyle. Intentional focus and a positive attitude have been constant pillars throughout my journey. These disciplines have landed me in some key positions of leadership and responsibility. Most notable are roles such as founding chair for the Buffalo chapter of the Urban League Young Professionals (BULYP) to most currently being an essential part of community relations for POC trying to enter the cannabis space in Western NY. In addition to these important responsibilities I've also hosted, co-created, assisted and advised on a number of events and productions. While wide ranging in service, my involvement in any project is centralized around 3 essential elements: Cultural Competence, Cultural Development and Cultural Advancement. As a true believer that “One man can Change the world” I've done my best to embrace that challenge and encourage us all to do the same.
