Jermaine A. Hamwright

Jermaine Anthony Hamwright, author of Get The FACTS: Successful Relationships From A Guy's Point Of View, is a human resources specialist with the U.S. Army with a background in business administration. He has served on several tours including:

Operation Noble Eagle 2002-2004

Operation Iraqi Freedom 2005-2006

Operation Iraqi Freedom 2008-2009

No stranger to adversity, Jermaine overcame a childhood speech impediment and reading challenges and went on to create a successful life. He taught himself to speak clearly by repeatedly listening to cassettes he borrowed from several pastors. "Growing up I was considered to have a learning disability, but I wasn't given a chance to see what was wrong," he explains. "Because I knew I could not read, I had to totally rely on my memory. These early challenges enhanced my memorization skills."

Born and raised in New Jersey, he ran track in high school and earned three Championship Jackets plus qualified for State Finals three times in hurdles. Jermaine credits his grandmother with teaching him to believe in himself. "My grandmother instilled confidence in me when I didn't think I was smart enough or looked good enough," he says. His father, Charles, works at a funeral home and his mother, Thelma, runs her own hair salon. Jermaine is the proud father of a young daughter, Aniya.

He was diagnosed with adult ADHD in 2008, but he sees this revelation as a gift, not a curse. "I wish I'd known this as a kid so that I could have figured out how to overcome a lot of issues growing up. But I am happy to have finally mastered what was once seen as a disability in me."

"I believe that happiness is a feeling of self-completion. That no one can take from you. Also, it's a form of joy that includes the lord's help toward your direction to success." Jermaine A. Hamwright
