About
My journey to complete education was put on a brief pause of some 30 plus ye and it could not of come any sooner. Although, I am disappointed in my failure to secure a college education that was a full scholarship when I was a young man, I cannot be happier that I went back to school just over three years ago and have finished what was important to my mother, myself, and my loved ones. The experience beginning with remedial math and English had escalated to higher levels that I had some doubts to a smooth success, but I realize it's not where you start, how you start, struggles, or successes; it's about the journey!!!
