Growing up I lived a hard life. At the age of 16 years old my father was killed suddenly in a car accident. My whole world was suddenly turned upside down in an instant. Also during that time my best friends dad was diagnosed with an incurable cancer. My grandmother had passed away later that year. I worked 2 jobs, went to school, and helped financially with my mom so we could get by. Needless to say I was a 16 year old boy having to grow up fast in this world to find his way to becoming a man. Finding joy in my life again going through so much adversity and pain early in life taught me resiliency and that I was strong enough to overcome any obstacle placed in front of me. Through this experience I learned I was unstoppable and I could accomplish anything I set my mind to. These life lessons helped me to seek out and discover my passion in this world which is my love for commercial real estate.
