Tony is the Interim Executive Director of a housing authority in Alabama. His early life wasn’t easy, growing up in Public Housing. You can listen to his story on TrailBlazersImpact, Season 4, and in his book, Life in the Bricks. Find out how he worked his way out of public housing to become a global basketball star. And then find out what he did when tradegy befell him.
Coming full circle, he now manages housing authority properties. The housing authority staff are essential workers, trying to keep a roof over the heads of one of our most vulnerable populations. They have split shifts in the office, and the rest of the staff are working from home. They are trying to stay as normal as possible while they can. They have closed their lobbies and are not going into units unless it is an extreme emergency. They have streamlined opertions and focus on the important things.
He appreciates his time spent with his family, although it’s especially difficult for his wife who had just opened a new dental practice. He was shocked to hear about his college roommate who died from the coronavirus in New York – and he was a 48 year old college athelete!
