When I found myself in one of the most challenging seasons of my life, attempting to play soccer professionally was the best decision I could have made.

Undergoing the difficult process of becoming a Certified Public Accountant was pivotal. It reinforced the value of developing healthier habits and behaviors, but most importantly, it led me to find peace in accepting failure and letting go of a goal lacking true passion.

Self-experimentation with fasting and subsequently with different diets was foundational to the lifestyle changes I have made. It was an eye-opening endeavor providing invaluable awareness about nutrition and in turn revolutionizing my eating habits.

Using and abusing alcohol was a personal struggle that led me to a self-distructive path. Breaking free from it allowed me to experience the gift of life in a deeper, more intentional and meaningful way.
