My whole life was established by watching my parents serve others. I immediately knew, from a young age, I wanted to help others. This began from working with young people in churches and around the world, and then transitioning to helping save lives for people of all ages become, and stay, great drivers behind the wheel of a vehicle.

There is no better way for me to serve people in having the knowledge I make a difference in young people from 14 years old, to helping seniors in their eighties stay safe and confident in their driving abilities.
