I got the opportunity to announce the first 2 rounds of the NCAA Men’s March Madness, which was an incredible honor!
As well as meeting and announcing alongside the legendary Kevin Harland in the same arena was an absolute amazing experience. 🏀🎤 #marchmadness #funtimes
Honored to have been chosen as an NBA All-Star Announcer, introducing the players at the 73rd All-Star Game on TNT. The experience was beyond words, from the electrifying atmosphere to the incredible individuals I had the privilege to meet and network with. Indianapolis did an awesome job hosting and displaying the Hoosier states love for basketball. It’s crazy I had dreams to be a NBA player as a kid and play in a All Star game but clearly I wasn’t good enough, BUT I was able to become a NBA All Star via using my voice. It’s truly a dream come true, all thanks to the grace of God. I know my mother would be proud as she always wanted me to be in media/broadcasting using my voice since I was young. Today February 20th would have been her 56th Birthday and I know she would’ve been ready for me to spoil her with gifts and love. As well as asking me to tell the story of how I met one of her favorite actors Chris Tucker this All Star weekend lol . Wish I could share this great moment with her physically but I have comfort in knowing she is in a better place! … #RIH
But I’m just grateful for the awesome memories made this weekend and finally got to announce the #Goat Lebron James which was a huge highlight for me ! 💪🏾💪🏾🙏🏾 #NBAAllStar2024 #DreamComeTrue

🇿🇦 Was blessed to go to South Africa this fall. A few weeks back I had the opportunity to speak, serve, and learn from the incredible people there — truly a life-changing trip. From visiting schools and the hospital, to praying with hundreds and connecting with thousands, my heart was to spread love and make an impact in any way I could. ❤️
The culture, the food, the energy of the people — unreal. And the safari… being that close to lions and wildlife was an out-of-body experience 🦁✨ Mentally, spiritually, and physically this trip stretched me and blessed me.
I even had the honor of speaking while in South Africa, which was humbling and unforgettable. Johannesburg and the neighboring cities — you’ll always have a place in my heart. 🇿🇦
Just grateful to be a small part of what God is doing in the earth. 🌍

My Pepper squad had an awesome time on the Disney cruise to the Bahamas last week 🏝️🚢
We held this surprise since March and finally told our two little princesses in the airport parking lot ✨Early Christmas gift lol
It’s been a busy, non stop year for me, but making these memories means everything. Family time is the real blessing.
Millennial parents — take the trip. You can always make more money, but you can’t get the time back. 💙 #disneycruise #familytrip #PepperSquad #disney #makememories
Blessed to have been able to public address announce this amazing Pacers playoff run. A dream come true to announce the NBA Finals—although we didn’t get the championship result I was hoping for, this was one unforgettable ride by our Pacers.
So many great memories… by far the greatest season I’ve ever announced in my life. Grateful beyond words for these past six months—NBA All-Star, March Madness, NBA Playoffs, and the Finals. But in any accomplishment I have, I sure wish my mother was alive to see it, miss her dearly, I know she would be rooting me on🙏🏽.
This side gig has produced a lot of fun the first half of 2025. Can’t wait to see what God does in the next six. God be the Glory. 💪🏽🎤🏀 #Pacers #NBAFinals #DreamSeason #Thankful #GodisGood
Making core memories is fun—especially when you’re doing it with the ones who matter most. The Pepper family soaked up the sun in Clearwater and wrapped up spring break with magic at the happiest place on earth… Disney World! Sunshine, smiles, and creating memories for my little girls they will never forget. #Springbreak #familytime #PepperSquad #DisneyWorld
Had an amazing time being a keynote speaker at the Florida A&M School of Business and Industry. For their annual Fall Forum. 600+ business students in attendance at FAMU.
Thank you to the incredible HBCU faculty and students for making it such a memorable experience! #HBCU #Rattlers
JULY was fun. I had a time announcing the NBA Summer league in Las Vegas. Great hoops, great times and people! @hallpassmedia do an outstanding job every summer putting this NBA experience together. Also good times in Indy with the @colts at training camp with my little girls. Was a great summer.
Shout out to my NBA homies @mattderhalli and @ross.eisenberg lol couldn’t get a pic but the last video suffices 😂 two of the best in the league. #nbasummerleague #nba
I had the pleasure to be the keynote speaker at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. It was an extraordinary privilege to address a remarkable gathering of collegiate students from all corners of the country, who were participating in the esteemed AIM academy, WEB institute, and SCM summer program.
I was able talk education, tech and business. Great talks with Dr. Clarence Vaughn director of their UTKs business school.
This initiative, tailored to nurture diversity, resonated deeply with me. Love the relationship building with the UTK faculty. I absolutely love giving back to the next generation of intellectuals. #LiftAsWeClimb #greattimes
