About
I am 36 years of age, married, with three children. I will be the first of my family to graduate from college. I am a fire supervisor at our 911 center. Working full-time shift work of nights, days, and evenings without holidays and weekends off and mandatory overtime, resulting in 16 hour work days. I was able to persevere and maintain a 3.5 GPA or above. I will finally be graduating with two Bachelor of Science degrees. My first in Business Administration Management and my second degree in Business Management in Healthcare. I am a hard worker and advocate for following ones dreams and goals. I plan to continue my education, either in a Masters program for business administration or as a Registered Nurse. I am a happy person, optimist, and family man. I want nothing more than to pave the way for my siblings and children so that they may one day enjoy even better accomplishments and success.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I currently work for the City of El Paso with the Fire Department as a 911 Supervisor. Our 911 Center takes more than 1 million calls a year. I hope to use the knowledge I have gathered as a CPR instructor, TCOLE Instructor, and Communications Training Officer Instructor into the medical field as either administration or as a nurse. If God and Family allow, maybe a doctor one day.
- Graduate school interests
Business and Healthcare Management or Nursing School BSN at University of Texas at El Paso
- Outside the classroom
At this time God and family. With a rotating schedule and full time academics along with three children, a wonderful wife, and my dog. There is hardly time for hobbies. If I had to choose, I would say homework is my current hobby.
