At the very young age of five is when Tre first witnessed domestic violence by the hand of his stepfather. As an escape from the problems at home, he gravitated towards creative things like music and writing. Now, as an adult, he is very passionate about using his gifts to spread awareness about domestic violence. “A Daughter’s Perspective” is from his new book Grown Folk Business, a collection of poems that give readers insight about spousal abuse and the effects it has on the children who witness it. The book can be found here: https://amzn.com/B01M06D23R. Tre is now married to the love of his life, and they have two children together.
