A Little More About Me

My foundation in business and the skills I have were created from a situation I found myself in college. During my studies I was married, had one child and another on the way. I needed to make more money to provide for my family but vowed that I wouldn’t put school off or even go part-time. I decided to apply the education I was receiving in my Business Planning course and start a food vending company which allowed me to stay in school full-time while also giving me the flexibility to work. The business was successful and led me to take the risks necessary to grow the business. I learned Investing, Marketing, Finance, Risk Assessment, Supply Chain Management and much more. After years I eventually sold the company but still look back to the many lessons that I learned along the way.
