I got an opportunity to be still at night and reflect on my life here in the United States. While waking up and meeting people who are working to create their dreams come true such as a Segis and his wife Yadira.

After being here for this long I can honestly say that I am very pleased with what all that has happened thus far. I’ve been challenged in a multitude of ways and forced out of my comfort zone to grow and expand that I never imagined.
