Hi @Sedona315 and @Divino999, Well done on starting the contribution for Cullen Buie. I have some feedback on your draft to help improve it and get it ready for mainspace.
Inline citations: Currently your article has no inline citations, which makes it difficult for readers to verify factual statements in your article. Please bear in mind that everything you add to Wikipedia needs to be tied directly to a reliable source. After the statement, there should be a source. You can use a single source to support several sentences in a row, if it supports everything you say in those sentences, but you need to have at least one source per paragraph, and you shouldn't have any text after the final reference in a paragraph (because that content is effectively unsourced). If you need a refresher on how to add citations, please consult this training module.
Article organization: I want you to check out the article on Marsha Rhea Williams. It's a good example to look at for article organization, neutral writing style, and use of inline citations. Typical sections to organize the article by are early life and education, career, awards/honors, etc, depending on the information that is available. This makes it easier for readers to find and read information.
Sources: Here are some additional sources that can help improve the notability of the topic. I suggest you incorporate them into the article.
