Impact
Inspired kids become inspiring adults.
Most of what Lois and I support comes back to the same thing: making sure a child’s circumstances do not decide what they get to become.

My Future Story
My Future Story is a non-profit in Southlake, Texas, founded by Lois. I sit on the board as a director and treasurer.
The idea is simple. Most children pick a career from the small handful of jobs they have actually seen an adult do. My Future Story widens that view — helping them find a future in the things they already lose hours to, with enough realism to be useful and enough room left for dreaming.
It also helps companies understand the mechanics of building scholarships, internships, job shadowing and apprenticeships — the part most organisations want to do and do not know how to start.
