What is Super Dad?
Learn MoreWhat's the most rewarding part about being a dad?
Being able to mentor and show love and affection along with teaching him life skills and reminding him how special and purposed he is.
Why do you strive to be the best dad you can be?
I feel that your child is a reflection of how you raise them. I am a firm believer in the Word of God where it says in Proverbs 22:6 - “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” I strive to be the best husband, father, leader, man of faith, etc that I can be for my family. Having such a positive male role model in life has been so important to me, and I pray and hope to continue to do the same each and every day.
How would you use the $25,000?
I look to be able to take care of my family and their needs and wants, starting with my son’s wants and needs. I want to invest in my son's dreams and goals of being a lawyer and a judge and a chef. My son has big dreams, and I tell him all the time that he can do anything he puts his mind to do. My family is a very high priority, and has always been a priority to me. I want to be able to provide them the kind of life that they would like to have, according to God’s will and timing.
