Devon is originally from Lemont, Illinois, a small suburb south of the city of Chicago. In 2010, he moved to Kalamazoo, MI to attend college. Devon graduated in 2015 from Western Michigan University with a Bachelors of the Arts in Political Science. He joined the team at Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Kalamazoo in February of 2012. Devon began as a Youth Development Professional working directly with the youth of the great city, and was able to secure a plethora of positions with the organization including Program Coordinator of the Proud 2 Be Me program, summer camp counselor, and Assistant Camp Director.
