Devin Freeman

Devin Freeman was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and was raised in Kernersville, North Carolina. Devin is a transfer student from the United States Military Academy at West Point and now attends the "illustrious" North Carolina Central University (NCCU) to earn a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. Devin is a man of faith who believes that the change for tomorrow starts with the work we do today.

He uses his faith through activism, community service, and mentorship.

Devin is currently a Sophomore at NCCU and serves as Student Government Association re-elected Class President, NAACP Youth & College NC Political Action Chair, and is Mr.University Honors Program and holds many positions on campus.

While an activist through the NAACP Youth & College Division, he has been on several North Carolina and Nationally panels regarding gun violence and redistricting. He has recently moderated with activist Derrick Lewis "Leveling Up Your Leadership." Devin continues his efforts while attending NCCU to bring social awareness to issues within his community to bring not only students and staff to be civically engaged. From his actions, Devin has helped set up reading for elementary school kids every Friday with NCCU students and has created a homeroom initiative. Where students were able to get mentorship and out-of-the-classroom experience, implemented a two-day promotion of wellness comprised of students receiving formal education and doing activities to alleviate mental and physical health issues. Devin aspires to graduate from NCCU in 2024, then attend Yale's law school to receive a Juris Doctorate with a Master in Business Administration, to become a practicing attorney one day, and shortly enter into politics.

Devin is available for onsite events, virtual events, podcasts, media interviews and more.
