Outcrop holds. Almost there.
Muscles burn, but my friends get me there.
Above the clouds, a yellow star—
paid for in blood—shines bright.
Self-rule, peace secured.
A nation united.
A tiger on the move. 🐅🌴
Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare
And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.
Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
