Thanks to @towsonuniversity today for having me on behalf of Valentino's Workshop and other incredible panelists for the Integrity in Action panel. The gifts, experience, new connections, and giving back to the next generation of great TU leaders made me this a wonderful highlight of the year. These were indeed the most dexterous, in-depth and thought provoking questions I've ever had at a panel I was a part of. Integrity should be a constant act of leadership, not a ruse. I'm glad the other panelists delivered those strong messages.

Thankful for the Switch 2 donated gift to Valentino's Workshop initiatives by the national community! Extremely grateful for all the love Valentino's Workshop receives all-around. Collaborations, commissioned art, and so much more. A lot of times this entrepreneurship journey gets tough but people seeing what the Workshop is doing with speeches for kids, free tournaments for the community, conventions and more motivated some really good people to donate their hard working funds towards seeing me continue. I am super grateful for those who helped obtain the Switch 2 plus other equipment and assistance! My heart is full!

Family reunion today at Bowie State University with @newblerdorder_nbo as an alum doing a speech about my career in esports and especially with Pokémon, Pokefair, Tajiri, and Valentino’s Workshop. 🔥🐶 We ended it with our favorite money spread poses of Pokémon cards (sponsored again by my boy Ed @dragharder ). 🃏 Nostalgia and melancholy took over a bit doing a tour of the school seeing whose gone, what's new and the pillars that remain (people and places). Definitely a day to remember and full of love more than sadness however. How fast 9 years go and the stories that made it all up. Till next time with the coolest Bulldogs ever 🐶!

Took my young bul and student Marty on his first college visit at Towson University! I definitely want to do this for more students of Valentino's Workshop. More than grateful to be hosted by a grand professor of the English Department there who let us sit in his class and have my young guy soak up the knowledge and expectations of a college setting. Additionally Prof. Warner hooked us up with Lunch and apparel! My young guy Marty has a grand village. I'm throughly impressed by the standard to which the Towson University I knew has evolved into. A lot of friends and family have went there but it's getting to that world class standard. Looking forward to more opportunities for my young folk 💖

On the 30th anniversary year of Pokémon, I was once again blessed to coordinate the Pokémon VGC and TCG Tournament for @blerdcon , representing Valentino's Workshop and the Tajiri Region. 🔥🤙🏾 Additionally, we coordinated a Pokémon Sunday Funday for the Blerdcon community and all attendees woth vintage Pokémon games and official merch from the Pokémon company provided by business partner Carlton. 🙌🏾🤝🏾 We had a record number of signups for VGC, gave out free cards for the kiddos and attendees to combat the messed up card market, and brought a lot of smiles amd opportunities. ☀️ Thankful to the Tapletop section of Blerdcon headed by the great @navymontel for always considering us and supporting us tenfold, as well as my the other incredible staff of tabletop. It's about smiles, it's about Pokémon, it's about legacy. 🐐 Special thanks to @hisuianweeknd and @choiiseoseo for the pictures and videos. More on the way 📸🔥

Happy Pokémon Day and Week! 🔥🪄🎊🎉 Thanks again for BCPL for hosting myself and Valentino’s Workshop this week. I was able to facilitate a lovely week of competitive Pokémon building and Pokémon history talks for the new generation for different libraries. Thank you to my sponsor and great friend @dragharder for providing Pokémon cards so all of the kiddos could get some in this crazy market. The activities included retro game play all the way from Gens 1 to 9, Coloring activities, scavenger hunts, and so much more. Smiling faces is all that matters. Glad we include that mathematical education element mixed in too!

Thank you Spelman College for booking me to speak for the CreateHER 2026 series. 💙🫂 It was my first time professionally speaking and presenting at Spelman as an AUC alum.

About to be a year of Motion Sickness. 🌊 Valentino's Workshop was contracted the 2nd year in a row by MAGFEST to host and rock out this year's Pokémon VGC Tournament. 💪🏾👊🏾 We not only had a grand showing but were contracted to do the first ever Pokémon Legends Z-A Tournament at any major US Convention since it came out, at the largest US gaming convention in America at that! I also kicked butt as a Fire Gym Leader with Reg H, breaking a record with a 21-9 record and 30 battles overall. 🔥📈 My Valentino's Workshop team was too fire with all they did to make this possible, the battles too electrifying, the love and respect too massive from MAGFEST staff + the participants being a leading brotha in this Esports industry, and the energy being lovely to start off the 30th year anniversary of the legendary Pokémon franchise. 🏆 Catch the Valentino wave ALL this year across the US for the 30th Anniversary. 🤞🏾🌊 Pics and videos by the lovely @feralalamode
