Founding Story

The Gift of Gratitude is something I hold close to my heart. The gift of life is filled with highs and lows and that is why gratitude has played such a significant role in my life. It has always been the regression to the mean in other words the balance maintaining it all. The word Gratitude itself has brought revelation and instant change in the most powerful of ways. The feeling of gratitude is an overwhelming compassion and understanding brought to the surface. The ability to bring perspective, peace, and appreciation gives you the desire to give back. Realizing that there’s so much to service to others. With the Gift of Gratitude, we hope to build upon our shared commitment to giving back to the community.

At a young age, I had the privilege of traveling the world. Always observing the people around, me and their different walks of life. Simply watching how my life was so different from the same kid my age across the world simply because I was born in a different place. This played a great significance in who I am today. Knowing that I would one day have the honor to make a difference in a child’s life. Wanting to make a change seemed practical when I was younger. Something I consider myself lucky to understand early on was that once you find your gift in life you must use it in service to others. That way you are able to succeed in a balance of joy for yourself and give back. Since then, I have been committed to my gift of creating this foundation and giving back to children.
