D'Andre Brooks is celebrating a milestone.

The 31-year-old graduated from San Diego City College on Friday with an associate’s degree in sociology. He’ll begin classes at San Diego State University in the fall.

He’s come a long way from four years ago, when Brooks — who admits he was once “gang-affiliated” — was released from state prison after doing 10 years on an assault conviction. Now, he’s a small-business owner and youth mentor who has set his sights on a brighter future.
