About

Well, for starters my name is Cedric Watson. I'm 18 years old and am currently enrolled at Texas Southern University. I'm from Marlin, TX (a small town outside of Waco) home of the great mineral water! I am one of three children to my mother Shateri Smith, and my father Kendrick Watson Sr. My siblings are my fraternal twin brother- Kendrick and my younger brother Christian Watson. My twin, who just happens to be 10 minutes older than me is currently enrolled at Tarleton State University where he will study Computer Science. My younger brother Christian is a soon to be Junior in high school (Marlin High) and he's looking to become a better young man everyday. Each of us have a unique way of doing things and with that we hope to lead successful lives.

Education

  • Texas Southern University

    Marketing/Business

    2016 – 2020

Goals and interests

Career goal

Being from a small town and looking from the outside in on the city and the way it moves inspired dreams and goals that may seem out of reach to many. Every less fortunate kid, especially we African-Americans dream of one day going to the NFL. My path, is a little more complex although it leads to the same road. I intend on maximizing my opportunities and becoming an NFL General Manager. I choose this course particularly because of both my interest in Marketing/Business and my will/passion to change people's lives and how they live them. Increasing the quality of ones life will ultimately lead to that individual increasing the quality of another person's life. I truly believe that will be our one and only true path to some type of love.

Graduate school interests

My interest in grad school is something I haven't thought about. Although, I do believe it is a strong possibility that I further my education after undergraduate studies.

Outside the classroom

Working out, school, reading and just having fun.
