The definition of a family has changed quite a bit, especially in recent years.  I am a strong believer that, no matter what family structure, it is imperative to have strong love and support during the growth of our youth.  If family is not present, surround yourself with people that will contribute to your success.  To my family, friends, and wife: Thank you for being such a special part of my life.

Childhood

Growing up, my parents taught me to never let anything hold me back. My childhood was filled with the same experiences as any other child.

 

My Better Half

In 2009, I met a beautiful blue-eyed girl named Heather who stole my heart.  Ever since then, things have never been the same.  After several years of dating, we were engaged on the Empire Sate Building in New York City on New Years Eve.  One year later, we were married on a beautiful New Years Eve night in Greenville, SC.  For the woman who saw beyond my flaws, I love you.
