But before the world met the Devin Gardner who starred at Inkster High School and quarterbacked Brady Hoke’s Wolverines, there was just Devin Gardner the kid.

A kid who could have fell off his path. He had so much energy, his Kindergarten teachers thought he may be learning disabled. His siblings understood this, and worked to guide him beyond Detroit’s pitfalls.

A kid who grew into an adult who desperately wants to help others, and a person who struggles with the idea of trying to be everything for everyone all at once.
