time with his family and eating his great grandmother’s desserts. His great grandmother played a vital
role in his upbringing and instilled in him qualities he would never lose. Dedicated and loyal to anyone

create life-long friendships. He went on to graduate from Germantown High School (Memphis, TN) in
2012 and joined the United States Navy in 2013. He served his country for four years and resided in San
