His father worked two jobs in south Detroit to support his family and give Mosiah a chance to attend college, the first in his family to do so. After earning a degree in African American Studies from the University of Illinois where he minored in Sociology, Mosiah went on to earn an M.S. in Early Education from Roosevelt University. He met his wife during his studies. They have been married for six years now and have two children together. He currently teaches English to elementary grades at a small school near his home in Rockford, Illinois.
