Born again.                Alive to serve.

        The "why" is that I have committed my life to loving, caring, and serving others because Jesus Christ loved me first, died in place for my sins, and three days later rose from the grave and is the Lord of my life. I was shown the love and joy that a life of servitude and hospitality brings to my life and the lives of those around me because of my mother. Ever since I can remember she has been a beacon of joy and hospitality in my life: from caring for and welcoming my friends on playdates as a child to her hosting at-home parties and becoming one of the top sales representatives in her company. She never faltered in welcoming each guest with an unparallel warmth and genuine hospitality and the joy that gleamed in her eyes and theirs was infectious. It was her example and her influence that led to me to strive to welcome and serve others and seek to make a career out of doing so. I have since begun a journey to cultivate and master customer service excellence and weave it into all that I do.
