Abraham was affectionately known as "Abe" or "Ham" by his family and friends. At an early age, Abraham was known for key characteristics that carried with him throughout his life; manners and respect for his elders, his charm, and his uncanny ability to process numbers and stats in his head. While everyone else is looking for a calculator, pencil and paper, Abraham has already given the correct answer. At an early age Abraham had a passion for sports and competition. From his time as a Dodger with Baltimore City Parks and Recreation to his self determination to teach himself how to play and master the game of chess. Abraham was educated through the Baltimore City Public School System and obtained his Diploma on April 16, 2011. With Abraham's charm and innate intellect, he utilized his talents to help others with an entrepreneurial mindset weather it's educating people on the stock market or assisting others applying for entitlements, some of his family members appointed Abraham as the family & community unofficial social worker.
