Facing fear | Sean Wilson | TEDxIronwoodStatePrison 2014

As a kid, Sean Wilson had big dreams....but he gave up on those dreams because of fear. But he discovered the power of education while he was incarcerated, and now has a 4.0 GPA and lives free of fear. Sean Wilson was born in 1989 in Los Angeles into a loving family. Behind his guarded exterior, you‘ll know him by his playfulness, distinct laugh, and generous heart. He is the only athlete you‘ll meet that doesn‘t watch sports, so don‘t ask. Music is his sports, as he is a self-proclaimed rap enthusiast. One thing most people don‘t know about him is he can draw. With a 4.0 GPA, he will be graduating this June with an associate‘s in business management and plans to further his education in the arts. His free time is spent exercising, listening to music, and planning for the future. He wants to learn to produce creative sounds in music that people love.
