About Me


I am Staff Sergeant Furrow, a proud military police officer serving in the United States Army. Currently, I have the privilege of being an instructor at FAMU ROTC, where I bring seven years of experience to the table.

Aside from my military responsibilities, I have a deep passion for the outdoors. Whether it's hiking along scenic trails, cycling through challenging terrains, or delving into the world of coin collecting, I find immense joy and fulfillment in exploring nature's wonders.

Teaching is more than just a profession for me, it's a calling. I am dedicated to inspiring and shaping the future leaders of our military with enthusiasm, knowledge, and a genuine love for learning.
