2. Walter grew up in a low­income family witnessing domestic violence between his parents. He
was then attracting media attention as a rare Four­Sport athlete who played football,
basketball, baseball, track and field. However, a fateful car accident stole his promising
athletic career, taking away scholarship offers from top colleges around the country. Even
worse, doctors predicted he would not survive his coma and multiple internal injuries. Walter
proved them wrong.
However, after struggling to learn to walk again, he grieved his athletic career was over. Just
as Walter was making a full physical recovery, he was devastated again. His father was
murdered by a stranger in a random act of violence.
These incidents left him living an angry life, but he knew this kind of attitude was holding him
back so he started applying what he learned in sports to his life. “When you get knocked
down in life,” says Walter, “Pick yourself up, get back into the game of life...and Sport the
Right Attitude!”
Walter began his career as a Juvenile Probation Officer for The Los Angeles County
Probation Department, and later became a commercial realtor in Beverly Hills. He was a
project manager at a Federal Agency for over 20 years.
In 1993 he co­founded and was the CEO of a non­profit esteem and tutoring program for
youths and their parents. He received his degree in social work from California State
University, Sacramento, and was a ministerial student at Ernest Holmes College. Walter also
holds a doctorate in metaphysics from the University of Metaphysics, and he is a licensed
Heartmath coach.
Walter has served on the California State Prison Advisory Board. In 2001 Walter was
inducted into the African American Athletes Hall of Fame in Stockton California .
