“I am honored and excited to be coming on the board of �鶹��Ƶ. Since learning of it starting up in Detroit many years ago, I have thought of it as a wonderful asset to the Detroit educational community. Through my involvement in Bookstock, I have become more acquainted with what �鶹��Ƶ accomplishes. I look forward to learning and helping where I can, especially if there is any intersection with my involvement with Brilliant Detroit.”
