Today, we are joined by Eli Ussery. His story comes out of southwest Georgia. After making dozens of college visits, he discovered UAB, a school he chose before leaving Birmingham. Once a Blazer, he thrived. Not only did he live the green and gold lifestyle, he was also named Mr. UAB. Now, as a young alumnus, Eli is feeling a fire that is burning for him to give back...all because of what UAB gave him.
UAB Green & Told is a biweekly podcast that shares the stories from members of the UAB community. Through Green & Told, the UAB Office of Alumni Affairs will sit down with alumni, faculty, students and others. Hosted and produced by Greg Berry, Assistant Director of Communications and Governmental Relations, the podcast brings each guest's unique UAB perspective to those who listen in.
