Life is about the adventure that unfolds every day. I was born just east of Atlanta, Georgia on August 22, 1993 and that is where my adventure began. My family of six raised me, and I am who I am today because of them. Being the youngest son, they never knew what I was going to do, or what I was going to say next. I am an adventure seeker, and there is no place I would rather be than in the outdoors. Hunting, fishing, and sports are my main passions, but they would not be the same without my family and friends. When it comes to work, I believe in hard work, and doing the best job that is possible. I am scared by mediocrity, and only seek to be extraordinary. I want to be the best at everything I do, and that is what drives me to face challenges on a daily basis. School has not always been my favorite thing, but since I have been in college I challenge myself every day to be the smartest person in my classes. I have trained myself to love to learn new things and soak up as much information as possible. Learning is continuous, and I plan on learning till the day I die.
Motivation is different for people of different mindsets, but my motivation is unique. When I was 18 I lost my older brother, and that event opened my eyes to who I want to be. I want to be like my brother; a world changer, passionate, intentional, and the adjectives could go on for forever. To give you a little insight to the influence my brother had on others there were over 1500 people at his funeral, and I believe that was because my brother lived an intentional life with everyone he came into contact with. “Anything worth doing is overdoing. Moderation is for cowards.” This quote from a recent movie Lone Survivor is something I believe in one hundred percent. I guess if I had to describe who I am with a just a few words I would use passionate, hard working, and adventure seeker. Hopefully now you know a little bit about who I am.
