NAViG8R is mama’s boy and son of a people’s priest, born in Milwaukee and raised in the inner city that shaped his hands, head and heart.

He came up through public schools and the Boys & Girls Club, rose to valedictorian, and earned a full scholarship before dropping out to learn life his own way.

He cut hair as a licensed barber, stewarded the MECCA Floor Legacy, and shared ideas as an adjunct professor at two major universities.

He became a community-based public artist, clothing designer, and a certified yoga instructor.

Now he walks as a kind of Chaplain of Earth, a “multitude of multi-dudes” still discovering how one life can carry so many ways of being.
