He is black African-American and is 6’1. He is a very hard-working person but slacks off occasionally. Since we have multiple classes together we already get along and communicate well. Since I run track and he plays football we decided to do a commercial based on athletics. This is extremely convenient for us both because m, we can make and create a great commercial for people.

Making that move for me was tough because I didn't know what to expect, meeting n
