Morgan A. Poole is an upbeat Digital Reporter serving the West Michigan community at WOTV 4 Women and WOODTV8! Although it's only been 9 months since she's made the big move to West Michigan from her hometown of Niagara Falls, N.Y., Morgan has already made her mark around town and the office by managing wotv4women.com and its social media platforms successfully, creating engaging original content, and building strong relationships with current and former WOTV Crew members. Morgan's passion for the media and entertainment industry began at the age of 7. In 2016, this passion inspired her to create a YouTube channel that surpassed 1 million views and 10,000 subscribers in only one year. She continues to use her channel and other social platforms to inspire digital creators to be fearless in expressing themselves! In 2019, Morgan graduated from Delaware State University, located in Dover, DE. In addition to receiving a Bachelor's Degree in Mass Communications, she also received the President's Academic Award for maintaining a 4.0 GPA for 4 consecutive years. Although keeping up with her grades, participating in various on-campus organizations, and working three on-campus jobs were far from easy, wearing multiple hats has helped Morgan establish a solid work ethic! Before working at WOTV 4 Women and WOODTV8, Morgan was a digital media intern for CBS Interactive and Entertainment Tonight in Los Angeles, CA. With developed specialties in production, audience acquisition, social media, content management, reporting, writing, and editing, her collaboration with various top-tier media entities have resulted in 10,000,000 media impressions, views, and engagements from audiences around the world collectively. She's grateful for the opportunity to now contribute her skills to West Michigan! Morgan's greatest piece of advice to anyone looking to find an opportunity is to let go of fear! "Great things never come from comfort zones, so don't be afraid to put yourself and your dreams out there. Be confident, be persistent, and when it doubt...faith it out! Eventually, you'll end up right where you're supposed to be as long as your willing to go for it!"

Anthony Pierre life was turned upside down when he was suddenly arrested and sent to prison for 6 years. While in prison he searched deep within himself to understand who he really was and in the mist of this crisis found his love for writing that was lost in his childhood. Anthony loves writing Poetry, Motivational articles, and Real Estate Investing publications. Anthony is a successful Real Estate Investor, Keynote Speaker, Mentor and Amazon Best-Selling Author, with more than 20 years in the real estate business. He also owns Estate Master Real Estate Academy and the founder of Estate Master the Game. While in prison Anthony taught hundreds of students his real estate investing secrets and created one the most successful real estate investment programs in the State of Ohio Prison System through Urbana University. This experience helps him revolutionize the way we learn and create the ideas behind Estate Master the Game App. Anthony was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio where he currently lives with his wife and 4 children.

Anthony has lived, studied, written about, and taught about diversity realities throughout my life. He has presented and facilitated in academic and corporate settings from around the world. Anthony holds a B.A. in psychology from Willamette University (Salem, OR) and a M.A. in Christian education from Scarritt Graduate School (Nashville, TN). He has recently earned the post-master’s Specialist of Education (EdS) degree in Culture, Cognition and Learning Process from Middle Tennessee State University (Murfreesboro, TN). Anthony has designed and facilitated diversity workshops since 2004. He has lectured and led workshops in corporate, community, and academic settings, including Harvard University. He is a contributor to Rhetoric, Race and Religion. Since 2020, in the wake of the George Floyd murder, Anthony has led race listening conversations for a variety of organizations to help process the cultural, historical, societal and personal moment. Anthony’s diversity discussions took a personal turn when he began documenting conversations with his white grandchildren regarding race. In 2014 he presented “What I Am Learning from My White Grandchildren: Truths about Race” for TEDx Antioch. That presentation has gained more than 3 million views. In 2021 he presented his second TEDx talk, “Beyond Empathy: Next Steps in Talking about Race” for TEDx Lenox Village. He hopes that both of those talks serve as invitations for others to tell their own racial stories. Anthony lives in Nashville, with his wife, Laura. They are fortunate to live close to their 12 grandchildren.
