Ever since I was little, I have been able to focus intently for hours on end. Whether it was drawing or legos or writing music, I have never had a problem with focus — at least with the things I wanted to do. Like anything in this world though, our blessings are double-edged blades that come with inherent challenges. I believe this is by design, because I believe everything in this life is ultimately there to teach us spiritual lessons and bring us closer to God.

Because I could focus so easily this allowed me to learn quickly and also to become very detail oriented. These two character traits led me to pursue many things that were inherently challenging because I found difficulty and complexity rewarding. I learned to play the piano, I learned to ballroom dance, I became an entrepreneur and I have hosted my own show for many years. I have written several books, organized live events, studied nutrition and the body as well as theology, bible prophecy and Christian apologetics.
