Erick Perkins joined New Look Milwaukee in 2010 when he was in the 10th grade. Today, he is a 22-year-old program alum who works alongside Milwaukee Coordinator, Percy Eddie, to help lead our high school Leadership Academy students. Erick's passion is music, and he is currently working while pursuing his talent of songwriting and performing. Growing up, Erick lost his mother and father and was homeless. He uses music to relate to younger students in the New Look program and inspire them to be #BIGGERTHAN their circumstances just like he was able to do.
