Jeamillio S. Lewis was born and raised in Miami, Fl, October 11,1975 to the Late Barbara Ann Orr, and Willie James Lewis Sr. Jeamillio was brought up in the Liberty City area of one of Miami's inner city neighborhoods. Early in life jeamillio developed an interest in sports, football in particular, where he would often play in any street pick up game he could find. During his pre-adolescent years he began developing a burning passion for the game of football and sought to explore the game from a totally different perspective. Where other kids were merely participating in the game Jeamillio was trying to discover nuances and finer intracacies of the game, quite often commenting to his peers that there was "a science to this game", and quite regularly convincing those that would compete against him that there must've indeed been something about the game he knew that others his age simply didn't.         Jeamillio attended Charles R. Drew Elementary, Booker T. Washington Middle, and Miami Jackson Sr. High School where he lettered four years as a standout Varsity football player. In 1994, following his Junior Season Jeamillio made the All-County (All Dade) First Team, along with other notables who would eventually go on to earn All-American honors. Prior to his Senior Season, Jeamillio was named to both 'Prep' Magazine, and 'Blue Chip' All-American teams, along with Samarri Rolle(Tennessee Titans/ Baltimore Ravens), Troy Davis(New Orlean Saints), Nate Webster(Tampa Bay Buccaneers/ Denver Broncos) amongst others. Jeamillio earned scholarship offers from 18 of the top 25 ranked colleges in the Country before narrowing his choices down to FSU, Florida, and Nebraska, ultimately deciding on Florida State University. Clearing House issues prevented him from going directly to FSU. As a result Jeamillio went on to attend Coffeyville Jr. College(Kansas) where his #2 ranked team went on to play for the Jr. College National Championship against #1 Blinn(Texas) in the Mineral Water Bowl. That 1996 Coffeyville squad led the nation in rushing yards, averaging 428 yards per game, and 3rd nationally in scoring averaging 48 points per game. Jeamillio's Collegiate career was shortened by a recurring injury to his achilles tendon. Upon returning home from college Jeamillio volunteered at his alma-mater assisting with the Running Backs(2002) before assuming the role as RB's Coach the following season(2003), and Assistant Offensive Coordinator the season following that(2004) where the Generals had the #2 ranked Offense in Miami-Dade. Jeamillio took a brake from football following the 2004 season so that he could refine himself and his system, and also to spend more time with family. During the 2006 season Jeamillio was brought on at Miami Country Day School as an Assistant Coach where the Spartan's finished 3rd in offense in Miami Dade 1a-6a, and ranked in the top 10 in offense state wide. Prior to the 2007 season Jeamillio was promoted to Assistant Offensive Coordinator. Jeamillio took the 2008 Football season off to focus on family and spend time with his new born.

As a Coach, Jeamillio is known for his meticulousness, and keen eye for detail. He's a stickler for doing the right things the right way all the time. He insist that "It's not that hard to finish an assignment, all you have to do is finish". His major strength is in his teaching, and he has an ability to establish a type of rapport with the players that not many coaches have. He has a deep, unwavering, passion for the technical and fundamental aspects of the game, and believes that the fundamentally grounded and disciplined player will defeat the athletically inclined player 9 times out of 10.

Jeamillio is the father of two boys. An 8 year old, and a newborn (4months). He has 7 sisters and 3 brother. He currently resides in Miami, Fl.
