When I speak about my life, all I can be is completely honest. I grew up in agoura hills, ca. I started skateboarding at two years old. I was an upbeat active child. Sports came to me easily. When I was 17 I was ejected out of a car. FlightLife (helicopter transport) air lifted me to UCLA hospital. Brain surgery, ten days on life support, spine injuries,broken collar bone,punctured lung. Lucky to be alive. 2008-2013 I was disabled. In 2018 my mom got cancer for the second time. Stage 4. She was my caregiver after brain surgery. When she got sick and died in 2020 I lost a piece of me. The person she tought me to be, along with her absence Strengthened me. I told my mom we would be ok.. i got a job 2018-2025 and worked 30-40 hours/week delivering for 7 years straight. I push everyday to be my best and will continue to give 100%. I might not be where most people are at age 40 but I am not here to compare with others, I am more mature than that. I see life differently. I don't care about being cool, I care about doing better and better personally and professionaly. You cant trust any one more than i especialy when in a place of business. I have the will to survive against all perseverance.
