What did being in the Alcorn State University band mean to you?

Being in the Alcorn State Band was a rewarding and exceptional opportunity to express my love of dance.

How does it feel to be an original member of the first dance team in the history of HBCUs?

It was an honor and a privilege to be a pioneer during that aspect of my life.

Words of wisdom:

Don’t let what everyone else is doing set your tone or your lifestyle. You set your own standard of performance that you will be proud of for the rest of your life.
