In 2012, that dream was coming true.

I attend Full Sail to become better at being a photojournalist.

Strategies I set for myself for self-growth are to be present; live in the now rather

than living in the past or the future what happens now will help to write the history

for your future.

Having a positive outlook on life and in my work is a main key to my success.
