How did you end up on this career path?

It found me. I was just meeting people and learning as much as I could. One day I woke up and here I was. Luckily being around smart people at the top of their game, I saw I was on the perfect path for me!

What drives you to keep going each day?

Progress. I love the feeling of improving and leveling up. I also love checking off boxes and getting things done. I also use the fear of not being able to support my family or make an impact on the world to push me even when things get hard.

What’s your biggest source of inspiration?

Motivational videos help me a lot, but deep down I just have a desire to help people. I’m inspired by those who are able to help people and successfully do so! I’m actually working to create many more of these so I can help others here as well!
