4.8 My Letterman Jacket // Dr. Zachary Shirley
During this walk, Dr. Shirley discusses how his letterman jacket influenced his career decision making.
A Texas native, Dr. Shirley stayed in-state and earned his Bachelor’s degree the one and only Paul Quinn College. While at Paul Quinn, he became highly engaged in student affairs work - having served the Vice President of SGA, Homecoming King, and Orientation Team leader. However, Dr. Shirley's most influential experience came as a proud initiate of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc.
After earning his master’s and doctorate degrees, he spent more than 15 years working as a student affairs professional - most notably in the Fraternity and Sorority Life functional area. But in May 2021 - he pivoted out of higher education into Ed Tech where he now serves as a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Leader.
In addition to his work experiences, Dr. Shirley is also a founding member of The BlaQBerry View. The BlaQBerry View is a platform with 5 vastly different queer men who gather for discussions centered on array of topics including but not limited to racism, colorism, sex, and dating.
I met this dude almost when I was in graduate school by divine intervention. Over the last 5 years, we have MANY unfiltered conversations but this time we get to record it and share it with the world.
