Life & Career Milestones

My path in life took a while to figure out

  • 1.

    Went to school then stopped attending but noticed it's better in life and good things that is wanted.

Defining Moments

How I responded to discouragement

  • THE NOISE

    Messages from Family:

    You can't do it. You can't make it in life.

  • How I responded:

    People were telling me I couldn't do it and I couldn't make it in life, and I had to prove them wrong by doing just what I wanted to do. Having to listen to others talk about how I could not make it and how I will not be anything important in life.
