Here is a picture of my family. My father, mother, sister and brother. My father passed away on 9-11-16 and it was honestly the hardest thing that I have ever gone through. But my family was there for me through everything, and I was there for them. I went through a pretty rough time in my life trying to cope with the pain and anger by wasting my time getting in trouble and hanging with the wrong crowd. But then one day I started boxing and instantly fell in love with the sport. It was a way to get my anger out and just something that I found that I was really good at. At first I thought of it as just a hobby that i could do a couple times a week, until my brother saw my potential and decided to get certified and become my coach and even built me a boxing ring in his back yard. It was a surprise to me but to this day one of my biggest blessings. My mother sister and brother are my world and I do not know what I would do without them.
