Hi my name is Brandon.  I was from always Hot city of Miami, Fl.  Although I have contemplated moving on several occasions my heart is here and I feel I have much to do here.  I recently began taking an interest and freelance writing in 2010. I currently have publications for ehow.com, examiner.com, and suite101.com.

Having worked in the social services field since I was an undergrad I have been privileged to work with various departments such as the School Board, the Department of Children and Families, the Juvenile Services Department, the Department of Juvenile Justice, as well as other community based non-profit organizations. Through this experience I developed a passion and thorough knowledge of the different aspects of social welfare that affect communities. I loving working with people especially children and teenagers.
