Quamere S. Floyd

2019-20 MBK Fellow

Palisade Preparatory School

If you could use 2-3 words to describe MBK, what would they be?

Open: MBK is open to everyone and accepts everyone.  Community: MBK is helping build a whole community around us so we always have people to help.

How has being involved in MBK impacted you?

Being involved in MBK helps shape me to be a better person in many ways. It made me made me value my commitments more. This summer I was given a job through MBK and I became more responsible because I had to get up every morning to go to work, show up on time and make a good name for myself.

What do you look forward to most as a 2019-20 MBK Fellow?

Being presented with more and more opportunities to further my education and improve myself as a person and, once again, make a name for myself.
