Daquan Murphy

Born on January 13, 1990, in the Brownsville Housing Projects of Brooklyn, New York, Daquan grew up with very humbling beginnings filled with poverty and lack of support that he had to overcome throughout his life. However, though he was faced with these hindering challenges along with illiteracy obstacles, Daquan had an unusual alertness about him ever since infancy. He was also a rapid intellectual, learner, and powerful observer who could quickly put concepts and pieces together, all while doing so with exquisite enthusiasm, curiosity, and deep emotional sensitivity.

“Attack not each other but rather one's ignorance.” - Daquan Murphy.
