City: Winston-Salem 

Brain Injury: I hit my left frontal lobe when a truck mashed on the brakes when I was returning from my social work job.  I had 2 jobs at the time Walmart and Social Work.  Either way I am lucky to be in the condition I am in now.

Explanation of Mask: My mask has the colors of the Carolina Panthers.  I have been on a roller coaster ride ever since I got out of the hospital “Wake Med”.  I was pretty depressed for a while, as well as isolated and lonely.  However, I began to cling to T.V. church as well as music by August Alsina, Kendrick Lamar, Hozier, and that about sums it up.  Now coming to therapy keeps me busy and also gives me hope because I have a lot more to do with my life here on Earth.  My fight is to get back to social work and changing the lives of children and families of all walks of life.
