My motivations to achieve are my family and making a positive impact on the Earth.

My family acts as my backbone. I can get stand up in the morning and remain on my feet all day because of their unwavering support. I have 3 younger brothers named Matthew Paul, Joshuah George, and Joseph Wringo. We all have two first names and all of our second names are the Beatles. They are my best friends and I could not imagine life without them. My parents recently celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary and unconditionally encourage me to pursue every interest and opportunity. I am incredibly blessed to be surrounded by an amazing unit of indivduals who sustain my life and bring me pure joy.

Whenever I organize an event, give a workshop, or simply have a conversation, I truly believe that if 1 person learns something or is positively affected, then all the hard work was worth it. There is incredible destruction and dishonesty in the world, in our country, in the city of Chicago, on Loyola's campus, in classrooms, and among various relationships. If I can alleviate pain, develop my university, increase transparency, or inspire someone to do good with my personal behavior, then I will know success. In all, I simply want to help and develop others so anyone can reach his or her fullest potential.
