Growing up, I was raised very well by a single loving mother and a loving father whom did his best to be there for me. My mother made a living working as a cook making minimum wage and still managed to somehow provide food, clothes and shelter for my sisters and I. As a child we lived paycheck to paycheck. Seeing my mother struggle and being an independent minded child, I soon found myself at the age of nine getting a paper route to be able to give mom less stress while gaining money management skills. Growing up into my teenage years I maintained that same mentality, doing what I could, mainly selling marijuana to relieve my mother from stress of having to provide me with anything more than food and shelter.
My senior year of high school I was a middle linebacker and captain of the defense with dreams of being recruited by a D-1 university then going to the NFL. Towards the end of the season I took a helmet to the knee and tore my acl and mcl. Being injured I was unable to play in the playoffs where most recruits find there players, which meant I did not get a scholarship to a D-1 School. I am very grateful now for the experience because I would not be the man I am today if it hadn't taken place exactly as it did.view less
