Anthonnie Deshaun EasonAnthonnie is a 41-year old single dad of two children and Lieutenant Colonel in the US Army. Having grown up in Kansas City, Missouri with both parents in the home, he observed first-hand how to be a dad, work hard, love your family, and the principl that things are earned not given. That work ethic carried over into his academic studies as he has earned a Bachelor's of Science from Lincoln University (Missouri), a Masters of Business Administration and a Masters of Science of Strategic Intelligence. He has served our nation with distinction for 19 plus years as an Army Officer and has taken on single parent responsibilities over the last five years raising his 12-year old son while maintaining an active long distance relationship with his nine year old daughter. Through this journey of raising his son, Anthonnie encountered other men who had obtained custody of their children, those who were fighting for custody, and those who lost hope of even spending quality time with their child due to a strained co-parenting relationship. He has also learned that being an active parent with a child in a different state is challenging but love and persistence makes this sustainable. Having written multiple thesis' and led varying groups through decision making processes, Anthonnie embarked into the world of published authors with the intent of finding ways to equip and encourage other single dads to fight to be in their children's lives and encourage single mothers to foster a respectable co-parenting relationship for the betterment of the children.
