I’ve struggled with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) for over eight years. In the void it created, I found a different way of seeing life.
It sharpened my awareness of myself and others. I began to notice the layers we hide behind and how deeply humane we truly are beneath them.
I have learned that being your truest yourself is our first step to enlightenment. I learned to embrace, understand and accept my being. Through the darkness, I earned an unshakeable belief that anything with a positive net outcome is possible.

My Ironman journey is both a testament and an experiment, for me and for you, that hope is not only an emotion but an active choice.
Hope is a conscious decision to pursue a positive outcome, the root of all success. Chase your light, no matter how small it feels.
The greatest ripple you can create, in the world and within yourself, begins with consistently choosing the path that leads to a net positive outcome.
