He was born the third child in a family of 4 children. Around the age of 7 his parents separated, this was a turning point in Naphtali's young life. For that point on he lost trust in friends, and family, and saw the world as the enemy. His family went through many struggles as he was growing and felt it was his responsibility to solve the problems. Though he felt alone in the world he always made it a point to help others. His motivation was to help others never to feel like he felt in life...alone. When alone he would write poems simply to clear his head, but felt they were too personal to share. During his third year of college Naphtali began his search for more in life. He felt determined to break down his self built wall, which led him to contact his father who left 14 years earlier. That endeavor proved very painful, but he continued to try to change his heart. In 2009 he was baptized in the Christian faith and works to strengthen his relationship with God. He continues to write, draw, and make animations to help inspire and strengthen others.view less
