I love to write about celebrities, money and sports, and I have the experience to back it up.
I was an award-winning sports writer for six and a half years for two Florida newspapers. I covered the likes of Michael Jordan, Bob Hayes and LeBron James as a reporter. I promoted movies for nearly three years for Warner Bros, Disney, Fox and others and interviewed some young celebrities.

I have worked from home for the last four years, and in 2009, I was the No. 1 producer in my industry, and I was hired to work directly for the company while keeping a home base. I recently moved into my first house, a brand new two-story Florida home on a big lot, after boosting my credit from poor to excellent.

In the last year and a half, I’ve been to Alaska for a week, President Obama’s inauguration, the Bahamas, the NBA Eastern Conference Finals, Disney World, Universal Studios and Los Angeles/Beverly Hills for Michael Jackson’s memorial.

I recently completed a book, What My Mom Taught Me About Money, with my teen son, Darian, that teaches high school students, college students and young adults to form good financial habits, such as budgeting, saving, investing and more. I also have created a limited edition I Was There, King of Pop Commemorative Journal to remember the positive achievements and influence of deceased pop icon Michael Jackson. The journal has spaces throughout for pictures, personal expressions and comments from others who love him as a keepsake to this heart-breaking historical event. Find out how to purchase the journal or my financial advice book on the “My books” page of this site.

I hope this blog is informative and entertaining for you, and I look forward to reading your comments on my common sense opinion about money, celebrities and sports.

God Bless,
