Perfect Strangers: Echoes of a Black Suburban Youth - Justin Marlowe

Justin Marlowe holds a Bachelor of the Arts degree from Virginia Tech and has worked as an educator in the public school system for about 16 years. His upbringing was extremely diverse and full of elements that would seem contradictory. As a student athlete in high school, he competed in tennis at the highest level. In college, he took a multitude of diverse courses that cultivated his writing ability. They were mainly rooted in sociology, history, media, and classes with race as a root concept. ​ As he's grown older, studying these subjects has aided in his development and placed him into unique categories to be able to tackle such issues in an extremely keen manner. This is where he currently stands, as a budding author with so much to say and with a breadth of information to share with the world. The depths of his knowledge and intricate skill sets have also bled into the worlds of fashion and media, as podcasting has become an area where his personality and bantering competency has become notable. In the near future, he hopes to capitalize on all of which he has experienced and propel his career to new and unfathomable heights.
