Overjoyed and Under30

I was honored and inspired to have been among this group. I'm more hopeful than ever in the future we'll create and the ways we will change the world together.

Change, the way you love

I don't want to be who I was 5 years ago and I don't want to be who I am now in 5 years.

Beauty is more than just visual aesthetics! There can also be beautiful words, sounds and feelings but today I am here to talk to you about beautiful actions.

Passion is Not Enough

December 22, 2016

I challenge you to question the value of your life and your definition of success. I dare you to become the person you were meant to be by finding your passion and defining your dreams. Take the courage to decide what your life is about and not just what you will do any given day. Live intentionally and aim to not waste any of the moments you have been blessed with.

I am & I am not

November 18, 2016

I am not ambitious

I am not concerned with financial gain

I am focused

I am a person who knows what kind of life they want to live

I am not a prize to be won

I am not an achievement be sought after

I am an experience

I am an opportunity to grow in patience and in character

I am not done learning

I am not going to be the same person in 5 years

I am tender hearted

I am too hard on myself

I am not a fan of crowds

I am not afraid of failing

I am good at public speaking

I am an introvert

I am not perfect

I am not always the best version of myself

I am a Christian

I am trying to be better

Life Thus far

October 15, 2016

A life well lived full of time well wasted

The fruits of my labor, how sweet they have tasted

The challenge, the mission, the struggle, the strife

The success, the progress, the triumph, the life

Don't Say I Never Told You: Time Management

October 15, 2016

At 25 I still wonder who I'm supposed to be. I feel responsible and accountable to people I don't know but can influence. I feel a heavy weight and the fire of passion for work meant for something.

Why I Don't Like Video Games

September 2, 2016

You have to play on the latest generation console to be a real gamer. You have to have an incredibly expensive gaming PC with a slew of peripherals to be a real gamer. You have to play shooters with competitive multiplayer to be a real gamer. You have to play a sports game and always have the latest annual version to be a real gamer. You have to be a male to be a real gamer.

The mental weight of being different in this industry is taxing but there are people and organizations fighting to change what is normal. Fighting is exhausting but the victory is worth it.
