Running several initiatives, one being Movies In The Park. As a child growing up, Teel experienced what he calls the good kid, mad city syndrome many black kids live in urban cities.

Teel managed to come out on top with a beautiful family, educating many black girls and boys, and engaging in numerous political and community agendas that helped all minorities reach their true potential.
