PHILOSOPHY

"Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked for Save the Children in West Africa. It was one of the most amazing experiences I have embarked on. I was able to meet the child I sponsored, play soccer with the children, help build schools, meet with the headquarters to discuss future projects to improve the living situations of the people of Mali. It was the hardest thing I have embarked on thus far in my life...and the most rewarding. I feel forever in debt to the people of Mali, because I feel they gave me priceless lessons and gifts that cannot be weighed.

Teach, Learn, Share

When two people cross paths, no one leaves empty handed. Each individual is a teacher and a student at the same time, learning and spreading knowledge. Like chemistry, when two chemicals are combined there is a reaction and both leave changed and with something they didn’t have before the crossing.
