Spring 2025 in Review In May, I was honored to be recognized for helping connect @apsupdate students to scholarship opportunities through the @EMERGING100ATL . At the 12th Emerging Leaders Awards and Scholarship Gala, $100,000 in scholarships were awarded to students excelling in class and in the community. When I was asked to help lead this work in 2022, the mission was clear: build systems and raise awareness. Since then, we’ve seen powerful growth in applications submitted: * 17 in 2022 * 48 in 2023 * 108 in 2024 * 140 in 2025 I am forever grateful to play a role in this journey and to help ensure more students have the resources they need to pursue their goals. #EducationMatters #Emerging100 #Scholarships #Mentorship #Leadership #EquityInEducation

Spring 2025 In Review: In February, I was honored to be recognized by Georgia Southern’s Black Alumni Network for my work in education and service to the community. In March, I had the privilege of speaking at the Admitted Student Reception at Lanier Islands Legacy Lodge. Speaking to future Eagles was humbling and inspiring. My time at @GeorgiaSouthern helped shape who I am today, and giving back to the next generation is a true honor. Thank you, Georgia Southern University, for the opportunity to speak, serve, and be recognized. 💙💛🦅 #GeorgiaSouthern #EagleNation #BlackExcellence #EducationMatters #CommunityImpact #NextGeneration
