A Vision for Philanthropy and Brotherhood

His vision includes founding a diploma-awarding institution for Addiction and Mental Health Counseling and creating a psychotherapeutic and addiction facility in his home country. His interest in Masonry was influenced by his membership in the Supreme Vikings Confraternity and Norsemen Kclub International.
