Summary

I desire to step up a notch in my career and have a hunger to learn and thrive in an environment that I am passionate about, taking the last two years of my personal development journey through mentorship to hone my skills and abilities. The leadership objective of "leading from the front" reflects a passion for continuing to live the 7 habits (Stephen Covey).

A thirst for knowledge through creating a disciplined pattern for success in every area of life.

Business, relationship, and self-development are what I heavily pursue, and any knowledge that I lack in any walk of life that I am made aware of, I quickly close the gap.
