I joined Stand up for Mental Health as a form of therapy
and to "edutain" people about mental illness. Being
bi-polar means I've had many ups and downs. My dad was a Champ
pro boxer and with the essence of his spirit my brother Jason
gave me some touching advice, he said, " be like Dad,
and the bottom line is - if you get knocked down 900 times
- just get back up!" Some worthy advice for anyone fighting
from an illness.

Up For Mental Health and hopes to continue doing stand up
comedy after the course is over.
