Summary

6 years of professional business experience in the Technology Industry. Looking to pivot out of Tech into something I am actually passionate about, and something that is relevant in my life. I am in recovery, and my outlook on life has changed entirely by performing daily Spiritual, Mental, and Physical exercises that I would love to share with the world (maybe just Southern CA - for now). By taking a Spiritual, Scientific, and Practical approach to recovery, anybody willing can get sober, regardless of the substance, how long it was used for, and the amount it was used in.
