So maybe let's start by having us tell you just a little bit about yourself and where you grew up and just a little bit of your early background.

Sure, you know, I grew up here locally in Dallas in the Oak Cliff area, and I'm actually back at Bishop Dunn for the third time in my life.

Product of Catholic education, I went to Bishop Dunn as a student and graduated in the early 2000s.

From there, was able to play baseball, play football, participated in some drama productions as well, and did well academically and earned a scholarship to go to the University of Dallas, which is actually located in Irving in the Las Colinas area.

From there, I graduated with a degree in business leadership and decided I was going to take on the world and go corporate and do all of that stuff.

And when I got there, I took a real hard, deep look at myself and what my goals were for my life.

And that's not where it was.

I think we all have relied on some, but maybe talk about some of the most important ones to you and what they meant to you along this journey.
