Unfortunately, I can’t show you everything , but I thought I will show you some new swatches in my collection. Some of you see are suit, sports coats and overcoats so I hope you enjoy some of the swatches.

On May 19, 2020, I took the LSAT online during the pandemic. I was a father and business owner pursuing a very different future, motivated by my own experiences navigating the legal system. That first score wasn’t what I wanted, but it wasn’t the end of the story. I took the LSAT again in November 2022 shortly after the birth of my second daughter and improved my score. On May 24, 2023, an email arrived with the subject “Welcome to Thurgood Law!” I had been accepted into Texas Southern University’s Thurgood Marshall School of Law, Class of 2026. Three years later, I graduated cum laude and took the bar exam in July. Today, October 6, 2026, I learned that I passed with a 293. This journey has never been just about earning a degree or adding a title to my name. My experiences representing myself—and helping other parents navigate their own struggles—gave me a reason to pursue this profession. I wanted to turn those experiences into something useful for families facing some of the hardest moments of their lives. That purpose hasn’t changed. The next step is the oath. Then it’s time to put these years of work to use.

Another thrift store score. Not my size, but should be able to make quite a few bucks off this one. Found an XL RRL Ralph Lauren first generation Denim chore jacket with the tan corduroy collar. In excellent shape with only very minor wear at the hem, which apparently actually makes them more favorable to buyers. Guess they prefer the already lived in look. May start looking for one of these for myself, its made exceptionally well.

The baby shower was a huge success! Our grandson will be arriving around New Year's Day.
