The perfect day would be… Lifting in the morning, going on a hike, and ending my day with fishing and homemade carne asada tacos

My favorite escape… Tied with Sedona and Disneyland
My life… would not be the same if I did not have the family and support system that I have
I’m currently working on… perfecting a new language
Always… be honest. In life and in business. People love authenticity.
Never… quit when one thing fails. There is always more than one way to find a solution to be successful
