Enrolling in RDAP was initially a strategic move – a bid to carve six months off my 24-month sentence. I had no idea what to expect with regard to programs/classes in prison but I certainly wasn’t worried. There is a common misconception that prison classes are a breeze…but that perception crumbles for most people after […]

Today I have made a commitment to starting an exercise regiment that is everyday. I will commit to walking for 45mins everyday then add some kind of cardio class next week. I have gained weight since I got to this camp and it is because I have laid in my bunk and read books for […]

As I continue to prepare for my impending surrender to the Hazelton federal prison camp on November 30, 2023, I hope that my daily journal entries show my commitment to teaching and inspiring others while I serve my 28-month sentence. These entries will become a curriculum, one that will allow me to make the best […]
