MY GROWTH JOURNEY

A lot of what I know today came from my basketball career. From 2015 to 2018, I had the incredible opportunity to play basketball at the University of Virginia, followed by a year at Monmouth University in 2019. My basketball career didn’t come easy. I started as an underdog, working tirelessly from a manager to a walk-on, and finally, earning a scholarship in my last year at UVA. I even had a brief stint playing overseas.

This journey taught me the importance of self-leadership and how excellent teams should operate. Being around greatness showed me that achieving the unthinkable is possible with the right mindset and dedication.

OVERCOMING ADVERSITY

I know what it feels like to be stuck in fear and face hardship, failure, and disappointment. I’ve looked in the mirror and felt the weight of unmet expectations; feeling like I wasn’t qualified or good enough.

I made an intentional decision  in 2019 that I would not stay broken. I found my purpose, built my self-confidence, and learned to execute at a high level despite my fears. Success to me isn’t about material achievements; it’s about knowing who you are and living authentically.

MY ROLES TODAY

Today, I am blessed to be married and to operate in both ministry and the marketplace. As a campus minister at Hope Cathedral, the founder of Craft Your Dream, Inc., and the CEO of Ten Media, I’ve dedicated my life to empowering others. My purpose is to help people discover and use their God-given gifts, purpose, and calling to make a meaningful impact in the world.

MY CORE VALUES

I live by three core values: integrity, faith, and excellence. These principles guide everything I do, from my personal life to my professional endeavors.
