About me: Well, not to be too wordy or long winded, I go by the name of drake. I am a 28 yr old bachelor from Baton Rouge,lived in Auburn,Washington for a minute and now resides in west chester,pa. PA is definitely a change of place and being close to the nyc is a major plus. I am a Southern University A&M College Alumni, I bleed blue and gold and had jaguar pride ever since '81. Going to a HBCU is a opportunity that i truly enjoyed and definitely encourage any and everybody to be a part of it. Aside for love for tha big raggedy as its known, my second home is new iberia, about 30 min outside lafayette. I call it "da country" but its a place that does chill ya out. I also recommend hittin center city in downtown philly. I was in training to be a engineering liaison and now im working to a design engineer at boeing. I am a constant work in progress and will continue to get better. A saying i live is " the best way to learn is to experience". Im still maturing provided a couple hard lessons and know which way i want to carve my path in life.
