Advice for a young person: DO NOT MAKE LIFE DECISIONS BASED ON YOUR BOYFRIEND OR GIRLFRIEND. Do not stay close to home for him, do not skip opportunities for him, do not pick a university that’s close for him. He is not the world! Grow urself, expand your horizons.

Guys with dad bods- make a good pillow, always down for a burger, binge drink on the regular, usually funnier than the average male #teamdadbod – at Los Angeles, CA

If you are instilling fear in a student, you are not teaching courage. And if you are not teaching courage, you are not opening the door for another human being to find the infinite possibilities that await ahead.

Careers don’t magically happen. People invest in you, teach you & believe in you. You can work hard but ultimately someone opens the door for you. Honor that always.
