His parents didn’t go to college and he really wanted to make sure others had the same opportunities his parents worked hard to provide for him, despite not having a college background themselves.. “I kind of had to learn how to do the four-year college on my own,” he said. “My family, we didn’t come from much. We came from very humble beginnings and it taught me a lot of my work ethic, my virtues and models, and I just know that there’s plenty of kiddos and students here in our community that can benefit from a scholarship.”
