Never Let Your Dream Die

Locked up deep inside of each person is a dream awaiting to be uncovered, that will launch you a transcendent life you have never imagined. Throughout every presentation and one on one interaction, my goal is to help ignite your passion and develop a plan of action, because life is too short to live in the fantasy of your imagination. 

 

I know the power and vitality encapsulated within a dream, because I could have surrendered mine. At the age of fifteen I had not yet discovered my dream activation. Desiring to fit in led me into making bad decisions during the heat of the moment. Years later, the same individuals I spent time landed in prison, the psych ward, and rehab, but my story ended up differently.

My second time in the back seat of a police car took place early on a Sunday morning. Before sunrise I met with a friend; a juvenile delinquent from Michigan to grab breakfast. Since we were both teens, we decided to steal bikes part way through our early morning journey. Literally moments after uttering the sentence "we could never get caught" we rode past an intersection where a maroon car was stopped at a stop light; who just so happened to be the step-father who purchased my friends bike. Afterwards, my parents forced me to church where I experienced a turning point in my life.

​

While making desirable changes to transform my story into one of adventure, I began to recognize the inspiring and persuasive impact that was beginning to unfold. I began noticing a compelling influence that I was making in the lives of others. The story of beating the odds and achieving paramount victories as an underdog had a tangible effect. My focus is to communicate from my experiences that many things are better off because of compromise, except ones dream.
