Summary
Although I started working an “actual” job at sixteen. My hustle and hunger started when I was in elementary school. I participated in year round athletics since the age of six until my senior year of high school. At the age of nine my older brother and I sold snacks and lunches at my dad work during the summer to pay for any gear we would need for the sports we were involved in. We did that for about three years and then moved to yard work. Pulling weeds, laying gravel, cutting grass, building fences, etc. Last but most certainly never least I was raised in a God fearing household where Jesus Christ was the center.
