I am most passionate about my role in the "lukelove Foundation", which helps support victims of the opioid/drug epidemic sweeping our nation.

What is your Spirit Animal?
A butterfly. The butterfly is a representation of change and constant renewal. It may be small and easy to kill, but its strength comes from major transformation. To embrace the change, a huge amount of inner energy is needed for the process to be successful, you need to be very patient with yourself. It is a sign of light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how hard life gets, you will always make it through it and achieve what you desire. The butterfly also brings joy to all they encounter, and I strive to do that every day.
