Early Life

Williams was born in Greenville, NC and raised in Grifton, NC. He was born to a single mother of 21 years who had to discontinue college to give birth to him.

As a young black kid without his father, many didn’t count on him to deliver results and achieve great things given that he was considered a statistic (Around 64% of Black/African American children grow up without their father in their household).

As Cameron grew older in age, he realized that his circumstantial upbringing DID NOT have to define who he could be as a person. He started to switch his mindset and attempt to figure out the big questions: WHO was he and WHAT did he want for his life? He finished his high school studies at North Lenoir High School in LaGrange, NC and set his sights on his next chapter.

At age seventeen, Cameron started his first college semester at North Carolina A&T in Greensboro, North Carolina. Struggles during his freshman year resulted in him losing his merit scholarship, a major contributor to his access to funds to pay for college. In his words, “He had the perfect opportunity, but lacked the discipline to capitalize!” This change of events caused him to realize that if he wanted a successful life, he would have to strategize & dedicate himself towards accomplishing his goals.

He currently resides in Greensboro, NC and is finishing his undergraduate degree at North Carolina A&T.
