    Creed: Mission-driven, Passion-infused.

    Goals: Give more than I take. Make a difference. Leave a mark. Never quit. Love unconditionally. Smell the bacon, feed the ducks, gaze at the ocean and keep dreaming. Craft astounding memories.

    Motto: "Don't take any shit from anybody." - Billy Joel

    End game: To slide in sideways, fulfilled... but not quite done.
