With it currently being pride month everywhere we decided to invade our archives for this gem. When we think of high fashion and luxury brands the typical Iconic names come to mind such as Yves Saint Laurent, Versace, and Dior.

It's always interesting when I get to come across a person who has a way with words, it cuts out a lot of the labor for me, and it's very refreshing to see how other people think in terms of verbiage. Walter Neil goes above and beyond in doing so for this interview, he not only got everything back to me immediately, but he also answered everything with enough material to keep the readers intrigued as if we were reading one of his amazing books. Being in contact with people like Neil makes it possible for me to keep telling our stories from a multi-talented, multi-functional, multi-creative standpoint. So I will keep my commentary to a minimum so it doesn't distract from the art that was created here......... Let's start with an intr oduction for the readers, lik e name, age, and wher e you are fro m...... W alter Neil is an author , creator and overall trendsetter .

One of the things I like most about choosing the people I work with, is that I come across the most amazing people with the best stories to tell. Recently I caught up with Mr.Deven Hubbard of Atlanta, GA, he is young and doing it all, if you follow him on IG like I do you can see he dominates the social world all the way to L.A. So it’s no surprise that the photogenic athlete has caught the modeling world’s attention as well, he has an inspiring positive attitude that will serve him well on the successful path he is on. You don’t have to take my word for it, when he tells his own story so well…… Q:Let's start with talking about where you are from for the people who just might be getting familiar with who you are..........
