Bio

Hello! I am Allen Forbus. I grew up in a relatively wealthy area - Jacksonville Beach - but in the poorest neighborhood within it. Throughout high school, I excelled in academics and managed to graduate with an Associate of the Arts from Florida State College at Jacksonville. Currently, I am studying at Florida State University trying to remain academically successful so I can make my family proud and have the career of my dreams!
