As the world significantly changes, he thinks dads are a lot more involved.

Lavoie admits that it’s hard to manage work and family time, but he tries his best to always be present in those once in a life-time moments.

“I work in the IT field, we are all always come and go, but I try to work it as best as I can. For instance, go to work early, so I can leave at a good time. In that way, I can be with my kids for their most important moments in their life and if I missed that, I would regret it.”

“Reach for the stars, follow your heart and dreams, nothing is impossible. Never be afraid to ask for help, be honest, be true to yourself and don’t let people push you down.”
