My why stems from the majority of individuals living an unfulfilled life. Many individuals fall victim to laziness, fear, and the inability to think for themselves. I believe that everyone is great and God has placed me here to bring out of you what is already in you. Your life begins the day you toss fear out the window and start to believe in yourself.

Through my tenure of division 1 athletics I adapted a high level of mental toughness. I was trained to embrace discomfort, not to concern myself with distractions, and to focus on what I can do in the present moment that will produce the best opportunity to succeed.

Through my education I have learned to critically think, which allows me to think independently, clearly and rationally. I graduated from Temple University with a Bachelor of Business Administration from the Fox School of Business and a Master of Science from Western Illinois University.
