Where were you born? Georgetown, Guyana, South America.
Who was your favorite school teacher? Mrs. Hall, my 5th grade teacher. She was the first teacher who really believed in me. She was cool.
Significant others: How did you meet them? I met my favorite girl during my freshman year in college, the year I vowed to date no one. I guess that didn't work. I married her five years later. She's the greatest woman I know.
What was your first job? I worked as a stock clerk for a Sears department store.
What is your favorite veggie food item? Tofu. I know, I know. Tofu doesn't taste good, right. Well, you've never had mine.
What's your favorite Bible story? My favorite Bible story is the amazing change that happened to Paul, who was Saul. He was a killer who became a preacher.
Do you have any pets? Do roaches count? No. I have no pets.
What's the most amazing thing God's ever done for you? Where do I begin? I remember wanting to go to graduate school and I wasn't sure how I would pay for it. I didn't know it at the time, but God used one of my professors to get me into a Master's program, all expenses paid. I was amazed.
Who is your favorite music artist? It's probably a toss-up between Fred Hammond and Richard Smallwood.
What's your favorite junk food item? Flavor Twists.
Where is your favorite place you've ever visited? I love to go to Seal Beach when I'm in LA. They have a little restaurant out on the pier that makes the best sundaes in the world.
Do you speak any other languages? Yes. Ebonics :)
What's the best piece of advice your mom has ever given you? Courtesy will take you where education never can.
What's the best book you've ever read? Long Walk to Freedom, the Autobiography of Nelson Mandela.
What is a phobia that you can't shake? Honestly, that I won't be ready when Jesus comes. It's not a true "phobia," but it's mine.
How have you changed since you were a teenager? Do you have a few hours? I guess the biggest change is that I know God for myself. I thought I knew who God was but I didn't really know Him personally. I am still learning, but I'm getting to know him better.
