Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am an African-American author/writer of Cameroonian descent. As a career Social worker, I had a deep passion for history and creative arts. I tapped into film writing and acting with films like “The Rize & Fall of Tephlon Ent.”, “Bug Love”, and “The First Purge”. In more recent years, I turned my focus to embracing my African lineage. Upon deep study and research of great African kingdoms, I set his heart on Ancient Egypt as his first project as an author. As of 2017, I began my campaign tours in which I gave educational seminars, conferences, and lectures in the USA, spreading the awareness of Ancient African Mysteries.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
“I, Black Pharaoh: Rise to Power” is my first and latest novel. I questioned the validity of prior novel and film depictions of the imagery of the ancient Egyptians, who were in fact, African people. I wanted to tell the story from a African perspective.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?

What’s next for you as a writer?
I, Black Pharaoh: Rise to Power the Golden Age Edition and Children’s Book. I believe this is important for youth and society to see great history along with diversity. The world is becoming more and more diverse, and we must eliminate the Eurocentric/western idea that Africans were primitive and insignificant in the historical record. In fact, we all originate from Africa, because Africa is where all civilization began.
