I was collaborating with Kobe Bryant on a multitude of musical projects while living my dream as a professional singer/songwriter/entertainer. I was married to the absolute love of my life who was coaching a girls' basketball team with Kobe and had three beautiful young children who were growing up way too fast. </span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>On January 26 2020 everything changed. I received a phone call that shattered my world and brought me to my knees. It was the day my wife Christina boarded a helicopter bound for a basketball tournament in Thousand Oaks California with Kobe Bryant and seven others...and never came home. </span></p><p></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>This life-altering tragedy took me down a tumultuous path of self-discovery where I had to figure out what I was truly made of and the lengths to which I would go to ensure my children would not just survive but thrive in a world without their mother. </span></p><p></p><p></p><p></p>
