My parents are a major part of my life.  I love them so very much - and they are the most precious things in the world to me!  I know that sometimes I don't show it, but I really do love and respect them.  If it was not for them, I would not be where I am today!

They have been there for me every step through the diagnosis, the recovery, and still now!  Their the greatest!

I truly feel that I would not be alive here today if it wasn't for them.  Growing up I always was embarrasses at how they seemed to always question everybody about everything.  

Well, when I was diagnosed with my Craniopharyngioma (A tumor located on the Pituitary Gland) and was sent to a neurologist.  The doctor immediately come in and gave us a grim prognosis.  This was very surprising to all of us.  But my dad was right there to ask, "Well Dr., If this was your son or daughter, and I was to do the surgery, of course having the exact same abilities as you, would you feel comfortable me performing the surgery with your skills on your son or daughter?"  He seemed taken aback by this question, and was kind of stunned for a minute, and eventually responded, "Well, No.  I would seek out a professional!"  It was at that point that my parents dedicated the rest of their lives to me.   To read more on my surgery, visit my page entitled My Surgery.

 

I work for my parents, for this I feel very  fortunate.  We own a successful business in the Portland, OR area.  We own Alexia's Auto Appearance - where we tint automobile windows. 
We also own and operate a school where we have people come from all over the world (Russia, Great Britain, Europe, and all over the US) to learn how to tint car windows.  To learn more about the school, click HERE
In addition to the school and our retail shop, we also sell "Do It Yourself Kits" on the Internet.  The web site we own is called:  http://www.sutowindowtintings.com 
My official title is General Manager.

For these reasons and many more, I know that I truly have the best parents of the world.  Every year when it comes time Mothers and Fathers Day, I always nominate them for the Mother/Father of the year.  They've never won, but should have!
