NerfectNOBODY'S PERFECT

KEVIN LAUEKevin Laue began fighting for his life before he waseven born. With his umbilical cord wrapped around his neck in the womb, Kevin fought back using his arm as a shield. Due to a lack of circulation from the cord, he was born with an arm that ended just below the elbow. His disability is a testament to his toughness and refusal to quit. “it was either my arm or my head,” Kevin often jokes. When Kevin was 10 years old his father died of cancer and Kevin became determined to make his father proud by proving that he could be a success - not only in basketball, but in life. And he did, playing Division 1 basketball and graduating as an honor student from Manhattan College.

GABE SALAZAR

Born to a teen mom and abandoned by his biological father, Gabe Salazar could have become a statistic. Instead, all of his energy, enthusiasm and tenacity to succeed led him to become a motivational speaker for teenagers. It wasn’t easy. He had to overcome obstacles of poverty and gang influence to become the f i r st in h i s fami ly to go to college. He attended Southwestern Assemblies of God University in Waxahachie, TX and pursued a degree in Theology. He worked in Texas at a school as an aide with at-risk and behavioral students, and he was a church youth pastor. He soon discovered an amazing talent to inspire teens to go after the very best that life has to offer, so he pursued professional youth speaking as a full-time career.
