Abraham graduated from the University of West Florida with his bachelor’s degree in Psychology. During his freshman year, he fell into a deep depression. After accepting the advice from a concerned friend, Abraham sought out the counseling services on campus and took a 3-month hiatus which helped him to return to school with a new outlook and new  vigor.
