 I was born in Baltimore Columbus Ohio, but moved to Cincinnati, near the Kenwood area, in 1984 with my parents. My family is the greatest thing in my life and I wouldn't change it for the world. I am a genuine person and a very hard worker. I am now 36 years old and believe strongly that InRETURN has given me a sense of being and accomplishment, but also has introduced me to a great group of friends. I was originally incorrectly diagnosed with Williams Syndrome and it wasn't until later that I was correctly diagnosed as a slow learner. At the age of six my mother started volunteering with the Williams Foundation.
Of the many talents and agendas I sets for myself, I have become an accomplished artist with items being sold at the V&V in North Side and I also act in films and commercials through a company called Media Bridges with Christian Applebee, the program manager. Additionally, I am the acting local vice president of People 1st. Socially, I have become the vice president of my own video gaming association on the Playstaion 3 and am currently trying to get my "Smackdown vs. Raw" association online and live. I also enjoy collecting comic books, action figures including original GI Joes, and shopping at the earth toy mall for more collectables.
Before InRETURN became a reality for me, I was introduced to the Tall Institute, run by Barb Thomas. I highly regard Barb Thomas as a friend and worker. She found me a job to keep occupied at the Goodwill Kitchen through June 2008. I enjoyed my job at Goodwill, but knew there was something better out there for me than working at Goodwill and sitting at home. After searching for work for two years, a long time friend Dave Trido introduced me to InRETURN. I feel that the people at InReturn are friendly and treat me with respect. I feel I am genuinely good employee and a hard worker. I feel that InReturn has provided me a sense of being and accomplishment. I plan on staying at InRETURN until I decide to retire at which point I will focus my attention on my artwork and plan on staying near my family.
