He has expressed particular interest in the work of DRNC’s education and community inclusion teams. Jeremiah, who is from the Bahamas, received his bachelor’s degree in pre-law from Palm Beach Atlantic University in West Palm Beach Florida and graduated from Liberty University School of Law in December 2021. In law school, Jeremiah held internships in the areas of criminal and juvenile defense, including an internship with the Council for Children’s Rights in Charlotte, NC.
