About Me


I'm a hard-working 26 year old guy who is striving to achieve some extraordinary goals. During my short but action-packed life, I have learned to take tragedy and turn it into triumph. It's crazy how things can seem so bad for a moment, but then you later realize that life's setbacks were for a greater purpose and reason. Believe in yourself when no one else will, and live your life for the pursuit of YOUR OWN personal happiness - because at the end of the day you have to live with yourself.
Remember, give, love, believe, hope, dream, aspire, trust, and carve your own way through this narrow winding path we call life. Be open and honest and try to leave the world better than you found it. Always remember that one man's trash is another's treasure - fight for what you love, because if you give it up it might never be yours again.
"I learned a long time ago there's no sense getting all riled up every time someone give you a hard time. In the end, the universe tends to unfold as it should."

-MY MOM-
The wonderful woman that was called to go to her eternal home on 11/29/05. Mom, you are one of the most caring and honest women that I have ever met. You have shaped me into the person that I am today. I learned to love, trust, and believe through your works and guidance. No one will ever affect me like you have.

You always taught me to strive for more, to strive to be "better than anyone thought I could be - including myself", to be non-judgmental, and to trust and love GOD. Just know that I love you, miss you, and think about you every day... Our days were not taken for granted...

I know you are still around me, and I got the sign that you sent me the other day... I'm starting to understand it all....

+Love your baby boy+
