The mission is …..
To inspire the many voices within the broader millennial community, recognizing that our generation and our cultural perspectives hold the key to transformative change, visionary leadership, and the collective wisdom needed to build a better future for America and the world.
I don't claim to have all the answers - I'm literally 'One Voice of Many.'
What I do have is the ability to synthesize complex information, ask uncomfortable questions, and create space for others to think differently. My military and emergency preparedness background taught me to analyze threats and opportunities from multiple angles, and that's exactly what I bring to these conversations. Real unity isn't achieved by avoiding difficult topics - it's built by working through them together. When I challenge someone's thinking, I'm not attacking them personally; I'm stress-testing ideas the same way we stress-test defense systems. The goal is always to strengthen our collective understanding and resilience.
My hope is that by sharing my perspective authentically, I create space for others to share theirs. The goal isn't to be the spokesperson for anyone but to be a catalyst for broader dialogue within our communities.
FAQ - Straight to the Point
"What qualifies you to speak on these complex topics of religion, politics, and culture?"
My qualifications come from lived experience across multiple worlds most people never navigate simultaneously. I've served as a strategic advisor to U.S. Military decision makers, worked in national security for over 15 years, lived and worked across six countries, and spent years studying the Middle East, and understanding different cultural and religious frameworks. I have formal education in Global Affairs with a concentration on the Middle East and North Africa, but more importantly, I've sat in rooms where life-and-death decisions are made about these very topics.
I have been thinking about these topics for more than 25 adult years, and it these topics have effected every decision in my life. I feel obligated to share.
"What's your response to people who say you're too academic or elitist for regular people to relate to?"
Yes, I have formal education and professional experiences that not everyone shares. I had to learn and connect many dots along the journey, alone.
My military background taught me to communicate clearly under pressure. My work in corporate learning development showed me how to make complex ideas accessible to diverse audiences. I'm trying to be precise about complex ideas, not because I'm trying to exclude anyone.
Sometimes we need to dive deep into policy analysis or historical context. Other times, we need to talk about how these big ideas affect real people's daily lives. I'm constantly working to find that balance and welcome feedback when I miss the mark.
"How do you handle criticism that your confrontational style is divisive rather than unifying?"
I understand this concern, and it's something I'm constantly calibrating. My approach comes from my military background where we learned that comfortable conversations don't solve complex problems. On the other hand, I don’t think we need to be rude about our opinions and that respect and love should come first. It can be lost, however. I truly do not want to unify with people who I think are harmful to freedom and justice.
That said, I recognize that my directness can sometimes overshadow my intent. I'm constantly learning to balance intellectual rigor with emotional intelligence. The mission of unity is what drives everything I do, even when the path there requires difficult conversations.
"Do you speak for all Black people, or just yourself?"
I look forward to the day where we don’t call ourselves black. That’s a conversation for a time.
I speak for myself. I share some strong opinions. But I speak as someone who happens to be a Black millennial with experiences that resonate with many in my generation and community. The title 'One Voice of Many' is intentional - I'm contributing one perspective to a much larger conversation.
Black America isn't monolithic, and neither is the millennial generation. We have conservative voices, liberal voices, religious voices, secular voices, and everything in between. What I bring is my specific intersection of experiences - military service, national security work, international consulting, and deep study of history and religion. I believe we are in a period of transformation and I want to be in that conversation.
