Reincarnated With Love

A lot to smile about these days. I’m just happy to be here. Thankful for friendship 🤞🏽. Creatively refreshed. Standing O’s and allat. Appreciating the man in the mirror more. Lil Des is proud of me.

Take ✌🏾| The Real Is Back

I left my social media job at Nike in 2018 to bet on myself and chase my goal of working in film. People told me I should’ve stayed and worked my way up from the inside. I told myself I’d return when I could set the terms.

I spent the last four years failing, succeeding and everything in between. But most importantly... I was growing.

Today, I made my return to the swoosh working in Video Production, and did so having fulfilled my promise to myself. A testament to what can happen when you block out the noise and trust your own journey.

It’s still surreal. I never thought I’d take on this role, but I’m so glad I did. After a long, long road, I finally added that DEAN badge to my Alpha Jacket.

To have been the one to lead these two young men into the House of Alpha is an honor I’ll hold dear to me forever. Xavier & Lyberty (the young Odogwus), thank you for trusting me, you’ve done more for me than I could ever do for you... Now go be great in life, uphold the principles and standards of ΑΦΑ, and make sure you have fun doing it. Oh, and remember to add ICE.

@frvnchy_fits my brother, thank you for your endless ambition and commitment. You amaze me at every turn with your ability to turn your potential into results. We make a much better team than we thought, huh? 😂🤷🏽‍♂️
