2. Grace

Updated: Feb 28, 2023


People: Martin and Elizabeth Antoon.


I would not be here today without Martin Antoon.


Brother, you have taught me what grace looks like.

A concept I had no idea about when I moved to Savannah.

You taught me what love looks like.

And what it means to be a good man, husband, and father.

All things are good unless they become the ultimate things.

Thank you for pointing me to the only perfect one.

I love you more than words.

Thank you for reminding me that everything will be okay.


Elizabeth Antoon: the greatest friend, confidant, and listener this world has ever known.

Your ability to be kind and compassionate and be “there” for every conversation we had before the leadership team on Sunday has made me the friend and listener I am today.

Love you so much, Elizabeth.

I am blessed and privileged to learn from you both and be inspired by the two of you.

This one Indian kid who knew no one and was so afraid owes you everything he has today.

My commitment to being "better" flow from two of the most blessed, intentional, and humble people this world has ever known.


Place: Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.


I came to Los Angeles and was terrified.

I walked into my workplace and found hope, joy, and purpose.

I didn’t wait for this job to become my dream job.

I chose to put the dream into the job and will never turn away from that commitment.

It is my privilege, honor, and my blessing to serve our tremendous guests and team at The Academy through the museum, modeling the faith, service, compassion, and love of my Savior.


Blessed beyond measure.
