He has spearheaded and regularly participates in a variety of diversity-focused training initiatives, such as the “Can We Really Talk” series hosted by CAT; is the former diversity advisor to the Office of the Dean at Klein; and is faculty advisor to the student chapter of the Black Public Relations Society.
