At the age of 19, I moved from Oklahoma to California with only $25 in my pocket in search of better opportunities. For a while it was rough – I didn’t have a job and I didn’t have a permanent place to live. In fact, I spent many months sleeping on couches while temporarily staying at the home of friends.Since then, I have overcome plenty of adversity in my life. Early on I was told to never ever give up, and — from Oklahoma City to Lawndale – I never have.
