“You’re not famous until your mother has heard of you”.
(Jay Leno)
Love this quote from Jay Leno and it fits my life quite a bit. 😊
My mom is the only person who introduces me as Dr. Williams. She gets a lot of joy introducing me that way and I think it’s a cool dynamic. She does not think of or view me as famous, but she has heard of me and the work I’m doing on my Walk into the Future.
I was asked to come down to WPBF in West Palm Beach, Florida to discuss some of the work we do with our military and veteran populations. We have a large number of enrolled students with military affiliation and conduct a lot of outreach in the community. This outreach caught the attention of the WPBF news director, and they requested we come down and do a live TV spot to promote the event.
I was a regular on the local news scene when I worked in the Florida State University’s Career Center. This was my first opportunity to get back on the air at my current institution.

I’m not sure I’m famous now but it was a fun experience. Hope you enjoyed the interview.
Irie!
