Djery Baptiste has a pretty incredible journey - not only how he got to PCA, but where he’s been since he graduated from PCA in 2015. Djery matriculated to Vanderbilt University, played basketball for the Commodores, graduated in three and a half years, went on to earn his first masters degree from the University of Massachusetts and then has been playing professional basketball in Europe for the past few years.
Djery speaks four languages - French, Spanish, English and Creole. He didn’t come to the United States until he was 15 years old. It is a pretty amazing journey that brought Djery to PCA…so many incredible individuals have invested their time and energies into his life - and he continues to work hard to improve himself as an individual. Djery is now working on improving his basketball skills to try to make it into the NBA as a professional basketball player!
One of Djery’s favorite verses is Matthew 6:33 which reads, “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”
