 On a cold December 2nd in the year of 1975, I was born to Jenefar Slusher in Chicago Illinois. Shortly after we moved to Belize City, in Central America.  Many people don't know about Belize but it is a small country in Central America. Belize is located east of Guatemala, Southeast of Mexico and West of the Caribbean Sea. I have provided a map of Belize to the left and the Belize flag to the right, take a look.

Anyway, the Belize school system is very strict and there is where I learned to be a self-starter and self-motivated. In Belize, teachers were allowed to discipline the kids as a result the literacy rate is much higher. I am proud to say that I was always ranked #1 in my classes in Belize.  In third grade, I returned to Chicago and went to school on the South Side but found out that I didn't like the school system, so I went back to Belize again. For another two years I went to school in Belize but every summer was spent in Chicago. Finally after my mother finished college we decided to move to Chicago for good.

I grew up on the south side of Chicago and later we moved to the suburb of Riverdale, IL. I attended Roosevelt Jr. High where I played basketball and football.  After graduation I attended Thornton Township High School in Harvey IL. After High School, like many kids, I didn't know exactly what I wanted out of life. I decided to go to DeVry since I had a strong interest in techonology. As an immature teenager, DeVry was too serious for me so I quit and went Computer Learning Center(CLC). At CLC I was ranked #1 in my class and graduated with a 3.9 GPA. After CLC I wasn't ready for the work force so I went to South Suburban College(SSC).

During this time my cousin and I decided to start a production company. We came up with the name Slusher Productions. All we wanted to do was host parties but by 97' we were booking and hosting parties every weekend. We hosted the biggest parties in Chicago and by 99' our names were on every college party flyer. Eventually, Slusher Productions was my main source of income, I dj-ed at the nightclubs on a regular basis and my popularity grew as a result of this.

Back to school at SSC.  I decided to really get serious about school I declared my major as Computer Science and in 98' I earned my Associate in Science/Computer Science.  After SSC, my next plan was to work on my bachelor's degree. I decided to attend the University of Illinois at Chicago.  UIC wasn't for me so I transferred to Howard University in DC.  Howard has been good to me and I plan to be out in May of 2001. In the future I plan to pursue my master's degree along with working for a big company. Eventually, I plan to open my own business.
