My purpose in my life is to serve our community by giving my energy and focus on improving everyone’s life around me. I do this through the talents God has given me and through the passion of execution. .
I’ve been so proud to talk to creatives of all types. They have honored me and our audience with us all that they have learned and overcome. I’ve learned something that seems obvious, all of us have something that we’ve gone through. Many that have been part of our conversations are strong and use the power of creativity to help themselves and the world. I’m so looking forward to our future and our ability to create safe spaces for all of us.

I've known Portia for many years. She has personally been there for me as an actor in one of my staged readings. Since then I've followed her journey and her relentless focus on spirituality. I'm so honored to have her join our conversation.
She is one of the most intelligent and insightful people I know.
Check out her website.

Leroy shares his powerful journey with us. This was one of the most provocative conversations we’ve ever conducted. This film not only has a stirring title, (Dying to Learn) but also teaches a lesson about trauma. Brother Leroy Barrett is an incredible filmmaker and educator. You will feel moved by his commitment to our young people and his love for film.

I had a chance to take part in my first ever Southeastern Theatre Conference. It was in Lexington Kentucky a city I've never visited. I always get a thrill from going to new places, especially ones in which I've been near but never spent any time. As many places I visited I truly dug the city. It was a cool place that you could walk around pretty quickly. The conference itself felt...like I was amongst my people. I don't say this lightly. I was impressed by many things at the 74th year of the conference.
Toni Simmons Henson is the newly appointed Executive Director and I saw how she navigated which I'm sure behind the scenes was a logistical adventure. It seemed flawless.
The amount of young people and educators that are passionate about the art of Theatre was eye opening. The gleam in their eyes and the care of the educators was evident.
The amount of events, workshops, and productions was a bit overwhelming, In a good way. There is no way a person could see it all.
I'm part of the Leadership Initiative which meant I was exposed to some of the strategies and vision for the future. It was a showcase of the past, present, and future for the organization. The engagement about creating a beautiful future for Theatre was inspiring.
I would be remiss if I didn't share something that was special and surprising. There was a session for Theatre practitioners of Faith. Having a chance to link my love of Theatre with following of Jesus was a moment I'll never forget.
I'm so looking forward to the future of the conference and the art of Theatre.
