Hey, my name is Leshon Richardson. I was born in New Orleans, LA on January 25th in the year of 2000. I moved to Georgia August 2005 due to a hurricane called "Hurricane Katrina". I have 4 siblings. I'm the second to youngest of all of us. I have 3 sisters and 1 brother. The high school I graduated from was in a small city called Winder about 30 minutes from UGA. My high school was called Apalachee.

At Apalachee I was very involved. I was one of the student section leaders and I was also a part of the basketball and track team. Also, this past May I was crowned Apalachee's Prom King. That's somewhat an accomplishment I'm proud of. One of the biggest challenges I've faced in high school was finishing. Senioritis hit me bad since my junior year. It was hard waking up for school every day and staying up in class, and with that being said I'm challenging myself by taking an 8 am course my first semester. I'm more than ready to take on the challenge and discipline myself.
