When I perform my poetry, people know me as “The Phoenix.” I received my stage name when I was a senior at Hampton University in Hampton, VA back in March of 2000. During that time, I was going through the process of becoming a member of Groove Phi Groove Social Fellowship, Inc. of which I am still an active member. My influences are God, my wife, my family, and other great artists whose personality matches their great works. You can listen to my show Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:00pm EST on WJHM102Jamz.com.
