VETERAN SPOTLIGHT
Our Veteran Spotlight this week is Lamond Crayton-Hart! LeMond is a Native of Charlotte that joined The Army National Guard while still in High School. Through the Split-option program, completed Basic Training during the Summer between his Junior and Senior year in High School. After graduating he completed AIT and 8 years of service with HHB-1-113TH FA here in Charlotte and attended NCCU and CPCC. Started his own business in 2013, and continues to create and consult to this day. Primarily concentrated on appointment-only services, he just finished photographing a celebrity model for an ad campaign that is set to be placed outside of the Staples Center during this year's Grammies as well as being the Premier Lead Stylist for Fashion Week.

This is a new section that introduces Veterans in the community. In honor of Black History Month, we will be highlighting Black Veterans each week of February. Send us suggestions for who we should highlight next week.
