"There was a point in his life when he had to make a deliberate decision not to allow his childhood abuse to define him any longer. In many ways, his story is not unique; in fact, it is all too common. Because of his desire to instill hope in others, he's chosen to share his story and life lessons. He wants others to know they are not alone as they work their way through the dark."
