In the heart of a bustling high school, I witnessed a scene that would change the course of my life forever. A teen, caught up in the middle of gang-related altercation, fell victim to a fatal stabbing incident. The cruel reality of his untimely death hit me like a freight train. The chaos, the fear, the desperate attempts to help – it all etched an indelible mark on my soul. It was in that moment of harsh reality that the seed of Life Safe was planted.

I remember the face of that young man, the life draining from his eyes, and the feeling of utter helplessness that consumed me. I asked myself, what if I could have done something? What if I had the knowledge and the skills to intervene? I realized that my inability to help was not due to a lack of will, but a lack of knowledge. This was a gap I was determined to bridge, not only for myself, but for my community as well.
