My coming to faith did not start with a leap but rather a series of staggers from what seemed like one safe place to another.

Even if some days I feel like I'm ready to fall apart, I am ultimately happier than I've ever been. My family gives me more joy than I thought possible, and my career fulfills me tremendously.
