If your ink could speak, what would it say?It would say that a lot of failure, mistakes, pain, and ignorance have grown into accountability, empathy, compassion, and a desire to bring that forward to show especially men a healthy pathway navigating mental health, emotions, relationships and parenting.

What would you do with the $25,000?I’d likely put it towards becoming a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner - I have a Bachelors masters and DBA currently - but becoming a nurse and then the PMHNP would allow me to directly work with and tangibly impact a community of child and adolescents that desperately need positive male role models that are accountable to their toxicity/failures/short comings while navigating healthy paths forward to grow and help others also develop into healthy members of society
