Tell us about 1 significant event in your life that really made you who you are.

The most defining moment in my life is when I stood up to my step-dad who was emotionally and sometimes physically abusive as well as a sexual creep. I yelled in his face that I could do whatever I wanted and that he was not my dad after secretly stealing money from his LOCKED money box (i cracked the number code). He then hit me so hard I flew from one end of our double-wide trailer to the next. It was from that day forward that I vowed to stand-up for myself and for others rather than hiding and folding under undeserving leadership. This has had both good and bad consequences! ~
