I had to start out the New Year with my mother for FGOTW. To me she represents courage because at the age of 23 she came to this country not knowing anyone or a word of English, she had no possessions except her hopes and dreams. As I embark on a New Year I pray that we all have the courage to follow our dreams whether it's taking a cooking class or leaving your job to start a business. Thanks, Mom, for being an inspiration.

What inspires you? Freedom inspires me. The freedom to do anything you want when you want is a luxury Americans tend to take for granted. Freedom allows you to be independent and successful. I love that.
Why are you fly? I'm fly because I am healthy, I'm living, and I am free.
Advice: Follow your dreams. Do everything necessary to fulfill your dreams because life is a short and fast ride.
