SO DESCRIBING WHEN I TOOK A GREAT RISK IS HARD, I’VE TAKEN SO MANY
• The biggest risk I have taken was my plunge into sobriety. I was very young, but it was the truth of my situation. May 30 th, 2014, I turned 20 years sober, while living in Los Angeles. I am applying to Graduate school and I am taking risks every second of every day because I know without risk, there is no reward, no gain, and no true life.
