 \u201cMy greatest accomplishment was being able to find my passion away from track & field. I was a runner for most of my life including my time at Tarleton and I\u2019m glad I was able to find my love for cameras in the latter stage of my career.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dahmir Pearson, a Chester, Pennsylvania native and Tarleton State alumni, pursued his Bachelor\u2019s in Kinesiology while also serving as a highly decorated member of the Tarleton State track and field team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pearson\u2019s career accolades include him earning the All-Western Athletic Conference (WAC) second team honors in 2021 and ranking eight in Tarleton State history in the 600 yard. Despite his many contributions, Pearson expressed that being on the team greatly impacted his life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBeing on the track and field team saved my life. I wouldn\u2019t have been able to afford school without it. I\u2019m forever grateful for all the coaches over the years there that believed in me,\u201d Pearson shared. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTarleton helped me learn to adapt to different scenarios. Being around different crowds and cultures at Tarleton gave me an introduction of what was to come in my career. To see my work you check out my social media follow @deewith_thelens on all platforms,\u201d Pearson said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aside from creating content, Pearson was recently featured in the Cactus Jack x Travis Scott Jumpman Jack commercial that aired during the 2024 Grammys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
