Who am I? I am a father of 3 beautiful children, a follower of Christ, a Marine veteran, a former automotive technician and world's first official claims analyst for Tesla while innovating the world over, an aspiring world traveler, a huge foodie that takes food to the next level, and a thrill-seeking adrenaline junky that got hooked with skydiving and the like! I have been to war and back, literally. I arrived at a very young age to start my American dream in Bedford-Stuyvesant Brooklyn, NY in a tiny apartment, where we learned that leaving clothes to dry out in the winter leads to frozen shirts and pants! From there, our family spread its wings and jumped the state line to set up roots in Elizabeth, New Jersey. There, I made friendships, partnerships, and experienced the American way of life. I would go on to graduate top 10%, number 100 to be exact, out of a graduating class of over 1,000 students. I literally had to jump the fence to make it to the graduation ceremony because of the huge amounts of traffic leading to it. Where there is a will, there is a way! After graduating High School, I chose the route of becoming a US Marine. I held many titles in the Marines, tank mechanic, martial arts instructor, recruiter, sergeant of Marines, and many others. The biggest takeaways I developed while being in the Marines were Leadership and Courage. And when you put the two together, you learn that it takes great courage to be a leader. And to be a leader, you have to do the things that many others choose not to do, especially when no one is looking. Now into today, I have quickly become a top performer in the state and can proudly say that I have achieved the 1% level. This is great, but what is most satisfying is seeing the smiling faces of all the families I have helped along the way. Smiles are very contagious! A smile can brighten up any day, no matter how hard it has been going. I look forward to brightening up your day today!
