Born in the West (Driftwood) But Raised on The East side Of Scarborough (Malvern) in the 90's & growing up in the early 2000's "Summer of The Gun" era, wasn't the easiest but it was fun & moulded me to who I am today as a man. On my journey, making it from "The Hood to Fatherhood", gave me hope coming out of Malvern to the Suburbs. I didn't think making it passed 18 was an option with the cards I was dealt. Constant Police presence, incarceration, gun access, Prostitution & Drugs, Riddled My Environment Like an Enemy Seeing His Opposition. In '08, at the age of 16, I was incarcerated at Hamilton-Wentworth Penitentiary (Barton Jail) and at the end of my Year-Long bid, I said "This isn’t it" & chose a different path after that. In 2010, I took my first plane trip to LA & Jamaica, getting a new perspective of the world, viewing "1st & 3rd World Countries”. 2015, took a trip to Grand Prairie, Alberta and had my 1st Racist experience but that's a story for another day, in more recent years, the passing of my youngest brother & other key Family Members, something flipped a switch mentally, that transformed me into the family oriented, Businessman/Entrepreneur I am today. We bypassed those obstacles by remaining positive and emerged through the fire with a couple war wombs. What's understood doesn't need to be explain but I'm going to say it anyways... The energy you put out, will be reciprocated tenfold so, keep your head up, stay true to who you are & live life with no regrets, STNR!"
