“I love doing this work for the simple fact that I love to help people. It's very rewarding and makes me happy to know that I'm that person that people can confide in, can rely on, and can be vulnerable with in their time of need. I want better for my people and for the neighborhood I grew up in, so if I can be that person even in the smallest way to improve the unfortunate circumstances our families have to endure, then that is why I do this work.”

“There's a redemptive power that making a choice has. Just make a choice! Who you're going to be? And how you're going to do it? Just decide!”
