I’m going to photograph LeBron James one day, I remember the day I told my dad. I am ready to share my story with you. Over the years I’ve dealt with panic and anxiety issues and am aiming to step up and speak more on this. I will be donating admission proceeds to the National Alliance of Mental Illness. The past 17 months have been an unbelievable journey, something I always knew was bound to happen but would never expect. Thank you to all the amazing people I’ve met along the way – you mean the world to me. Special thanks to my parents for being tough on me, doubting me – It meant the world for me to prove you guys that I can do this.’ – Johnnie Izquierdo
