What is Super Dad?
Learn MoreWhat's the most rewarding part about being a dad?
The most rewarding part is knowing that my daughter depends on me and that I get to watch her grow from the very beginning. She’s still a newborn, but holding her and looking at her makes everything I work for feel different. I get to protect her, teach her, support her dreams, and be there for every stage of her life. Being able to call myself her dad is something I’m still amazed by.
Why do you strive to be the best dad you can be?
I want my daughter to grow up knowing she always has someone in her corner. I want to lead by example and show her what hard work, love, respect, and perseverance look like. I have dreams I’m still chasing myself, and now I have an even bigger reason not to give up. One day I want her to look at my journey and know that no matter where you start or how difficult things get, you keep going.
How would you use the $25,000?
I would use the $25,000 to invest in my daughter’s future and continue pursuing my dream of becoming a professional pilot. Becoming a father gave that dream an even deeper purpose. I want my daughter to grow up watching her dad work toward something he once thought was out of reach, while also making sure she has opportunities of her own. Winning would help me build a better future for our family while showing her that dreams are worth fighting for.
