COMPASSION
Compassion is at the core of my being, driving me to prioritize the well-being and happiness of others. In both business and life, I strive to empathize with others, understanding their struggles and offering support and understanding. I believe that compassion creates a positive and nurturing environment, fostering strong relationships and creating opportunities for growth and collaboration.
DEDICATION
Dedication is a guiding principle in everything I do. I approach every task, whether it be in business or in personal endeavors, with unwavering commitment and determination. This enables me to overcome challenges, exceed expectations, and continuously improve my skills and knowledge. I believe that dedication not only leads to achieving goals but also inspires others to pursue their passions and aspirations.
INTEGRITY
Integrity is the cornerstone of my character. In business, I conduct myself with honesty and ethical behavior, ensuring transparency and trust in all my interactions. I believe in maintaining a strong moral compass, making decisions that align with my values and principles. In life, I strive to be consistent and reliable, honoring my commitments and treating others with dignity and respect. By embodying integrity, I aim to build long-lasting relationships based on trust and mutual respect.
My journey with reptiles started back in 2005 when my parents gifted me my first leopard gecko. Little did they know that this would ignite a deep fascination with these incredible creatures. My love for all animals was instilled and nurtured by my grandfather, who shared the same passion.
As I grew older, my curiosity led me to explore beyond geckos. At the local lake, I would spend countless hours catching turtles and snakes, eagerly bringing them into my house. It was during this time that my appreciation for the diverse world of reptiles truly flourished.
After a brief hiatus without reptiles, I couldn’t resist the allure any longer. In 2016, I took a daring step and snuck my first ball python into my parents’ house. To my surprise, I managed to keep three snakes before they even realized! From that moment on, I was captivated by the allure of “abnormal” looking snakes.
It was during my quest for unique snakes that I stumbled upon my first Axanthic. This encounter only further deepened my love for these extraordinary creatures. With a newfound determination, I embarked on a journey, eager to explore and nurture my passion for reptiles.
Reflecting on my journey, it is important to acknowledge those who have played a significant role in my success. I owe a great debt of gratitude to Tim Simon, from whom I have learned and grown immensely. His guidance and mentorship have been invaluable. I would also like to pay tribute to Gary Evans, whose passion and willingness to teach left an indelible mark on me. Buying rats from Gary was just the beginning, as he introduced me to different genes and took the time to share his knowledge. I spent countless hours in awe of him and developed a deep respect for his dedication.
