The last person I interviewed was Omari Williams. A A&R at Atlantic Records. An A&R stands for artists and repertoire. Omari position is to discover new talents such as songwriters, and recording artists. Today, many believe that they are not important. In my opinion, if it weren’t for the people like Omari Williams who discovers certain talents, then the world wouldn’t know the amazing talent(s). As I started interviewing Mr. Williams he gave me a brief summary of the duties he do a day. One of them is being on the Internet on social sites such as YouTube, twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. I pointed out on Justin Bieber being discovered on YouTube, and hopefully he’ll find someone just as amazing as him. He replied maybe I could. The world …show more content…

It felted amazing to know someone is rooting for me to chase my dreams and excel in life. My interview with Mr. Sachs was amazing as well.

The first presenter was Madeline Manning-Mims and she is a Sports Chaplain. I found many of her stories very memorable. One thing was that Oral Roberts would always call her “Running for Jesus girl,” but not just that, one of the last things Oral Roberts told her was, “Move God, move.” What he meant with this was for God to move in her and this shows just how powerful confessing with your mouth could be, because she said that because of this she feels that God put her in a situation where she was able to publicly confess her faith in Jesus. I do believe God puts us in situations where we get to proclaim our love for Jesus to others and Madeline took that chance.

I had contacted Shirley Jordan in advance and conducted the interview at her church which is called Second Chance Ministries.
