Personal: Hobbies/Family/Community/Future Goals
I love to read and listen to music, especially jazz. I'm the fifth child of
six children. I'm the only one who lives outside of Tennessee, so I've found new
family in Houston: L. Whittaker, T. Sherman, S. Sparks, and C. Luster
I attend Wheeler Ave. Baptist Church.
Hobbies - Fishing and Reading
