About Me

I'm a 24 year old entrepreneur, I was very fortunate to find a few mentors early on in my entrepreneurship career. Working with them and learning from them and emulating them has been an incredible experience!

Nearly 6 years ago I went on a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormons). Let me make one thing clear - Mormon's are Christians (it says so right in the name of the church). I believe in Christ and Love him. God is Good!

I'm not married, so I don't have any family life to tell you about except that my parents are incredibly good people. I've always admired them and they've saved my life.

If you're still reading this, let me congratulate you. Congratulations!

My grandfather gave me some advice as I was leaving high school. He told me to get as much education as I can in the areas that interest me most. Thus ensued a two year mission in the service of God learning his Plan of Salvation and Gospel in some depth.

Upon completion of my mission I enrolled in the local community college and continued to follow my grandfather's advice. I quickly found however that not only did I find several unrelated courses intensely interesting but nearly all whetted my appetite for further light and truth.

After completing my generals and still having no determinative factor for choosing one course of study over another I continued to take classes at random not working towards any particular degree. After another year of this however I decided the battle was too much - I could no longer continue my education and stay out of debt at the same time. After spending two semesters at the University of Utah working two jobs combined with my scholastic duties was too great a toll on my physical health and my bank account.

I subsequently determined that I would not be able to do all the things I'd like to with my life, or spend the time learning about what I'd like if my time is encumbered upon by the continual chore of the acquisition of pennies. Becoming financially independent was the next quest and goal I assigned to myself.

I considered two strategies to this end. First, acquiring so much money so quickly that by investing it wisely my lifestyle and hobbies could be sustained by the interest. I investigated some avenues to this effect but was dissatisfied with the results of my study.

The second strategy was this, namely, to create a machine capable of doing my work for me. Not long after I resolved to carry out action on this strategy I was introduced to Bryan Robert (the mentor I made reference to in the second paragraph of this volume). He introduced me to the way he had created a massive passive income at such an early age nearly 18 years prior to our meeting.

I decided to partner with the man and take his word as financial gospel if and until I am able to discern better. Working with him and his team has been an incredible journey and a plentiful one, though it is years from being over. I have appropriate goals.

One other antidote I'd like to include in this, my bio is the occasion of my interest into philosophy.

I took a philosophy class headed by a classical theist professor. You may well know that the classical theist philosophy is the general theology of the Catholic church and has subsequently dictated much of the doctrine of its many daughters: the Protestant churches.

You may also know that the basics of the classical theist philosophy and many of its conclusions are in direct opposition to the doctrines of the LDS faith (as the former are philosophies of men mingled with scripture and the latter revealed doctrines by the literal voice of God and his prophets).

Needless to say my philosophy teacher and I enjoyed some high-spirited debates on nearly every topic he presented and professed to be versed in (though his only understanding on each topic was unbalanced, being entirely scholastic and no more than man's arguments on the topics; the crucial knowledge of God's revealed religion was absent from his understanding and discussion in nearly every case).

This stirred up an incredible desire to create a case for truly revealed religion worthy of being presented to the philosopher and layman alike. I immediately embarked on my newly self-appointed crusade and using the knowledge acquired in my life previous to my mission and the knowledge acquired on my mission, combined with the knowledge of classical theism as presented to me by my proficient professor I created in three months the object of my design.

I urge all who have an innate desire for truth to read it's words. I'm straight to the point and very informative.
