Summary

I grew up in a broken home in Michigan and fell into the depths of drug and alcohol addiction from a young age. Facing homelessness, jail time, and multiple run-ins with the law, I experienced rock-bottom moments—including drinking toilet water in a jail cell due to extreme dehydration. Amid this chaos, I returned to church, was baptized, and on my 20th birthday, God intervened through a transformative boot camp experience and powerful prayer. That experience, along with the guidance from my mentor at the treatment center, turned my life around. Today, I stand as a testimony of how Jesus delivered me from bondage, inspired me to pursue change, and propelled me toward success in real estate and ministry. I share my story to give hope to others who are struggling, reminding them that every hardship can be redeemed by faith.
