Hi, my name is Mario. It’s great to meet you. A little about me, I love telling stories, making educational comics for kids, and growing super delicious carrots in my backyard garden. In 2004, I hurt my neck diving into a shallow swimming pool, leaving me a man on wheels. My whole life changed in an instant, though I never would have believed God had something way bigger for me just beyond the fog.

Check out my full bio below.

 

 

Our words have the power to uplift the broken hearted and the fire to burn down entire cities, so let us wear our words like priestly robes. - Mario DeMatteo
