A few years ago, my world revolved around sports, movies, and spontaneous adventures, and while I still love those things, my biggest joy now comes from sharing them with my family. My wife and two kids remind me daily of what truly matters, and I love creating memories with them—whether it’s exploring a new place, cheering on a game together, or simply enjoying the little things.

Faith keeps me grounded, reminding me to appreciate what I have and keep moving forward with humility. As a high school counselor, I have the privilege of guiding young people as they navigate challenges, make important life decisions, and work toward their futures. Whether I’m mentoring youth, working on a creative project, or just spending time with the people I love, I try to lead with joy and integrity. Life is short, and every moment counts—so I make sure to embrace each one wholeheartedly.
