At the early age of five, Stephen was classified as a child with a speech problem. He went throughout his entire childhood struggling to communicate with his peers and finding his voice. Stephen fought everyday to find his voice within himself regardless of what others thought about him or how he sounded. Stephen now shares his story and inspires the youth to find their voices and strength within themselves.
Stephen has gone on to receive both his bachelor's degree in behavioral science and his masters degree in counseling, always aiming to impact families around the entire world.
