Background

  • Born and raised in a place called West Monroe, Louisiana. Some may know it as home to the Robertson family, the founders of the reality show known as Duck Dynasty.
    At 16 years old, I moved to Texas for work and met my soon-to-be wife. We got engaged on the 4th of July. We're expecting a son for Christmas! I've held a steady job, but I am eager for more.
    I am destined to start a career in hopes of supporting my small family. I'm not sure if anyone will read this, but all the men in my family are institutionalized. And I set out not to make a sob story but to break the chains.
