Well I was born in South Carolina but moved to New York City when I was 1 essentially raised as a New Yorker with some southern roots. From Harlem where we first landed, to the South Bronx to Brooklyn !! Where I went to the famed Brooklyn Technical HS.. Those are all claims to call home. I call my childhood friends my family to this day and never forgot how several of them helped me make great choices in life or at least steer clear of some really bad ones common in our surroundings. I’ve also lived in New Jersey, California, Japan and currently call home Seattle.My passions have always been technology, community and helping those with less choices get more choices. I also watch my super circle of movers and shakers across the globe influence and make change.Right now I’m raising two wonderful kids along with my lifelong best friend and better half Mrs.Porcher.My hobbies include photography, Video Game Technology, coaching youth basketball, and mentoring.
