From Roswell to right here.
I was born in Las Vegas, Nevada, and grew up in Roswell, New Mexico. I was a competitor from the start. By high school I'd thrown myself into cycling, triathlons, cross-country, swimming, and varsity golf. If it had a finish line, I wanted to cross it first.
My sales career started in 2000, selling cell phones. Cars from 2003 to 2006. In 2005 I moved to Albuquerque and found Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Jackson Wink Mixed Martial Arts Academy. The mat taught me what no classroom did: how to stay calm under pressure, get back up, and keep showing up. I'd need all of it.
By 2012 I was at the lowest point of my life. Going through a breakup. Nights on a friend's couch or in my car. That's the year I met a mentor named Alec. I believe God put him in my path at exactly the right moment.
In January 2014, I went all in. He mentored me from the start and believed in me before I believed in myself. I'd finally found work that matched what I was good at and what I cared about most: helping people fix what wasn't working and build something that was actually theirs. I haven't looked back since.
