About

"Opportunities don't happen. You create them."
-Chris Grosser

This quote is the quote I live by on a day-to-day basis. Anytime something in life does not go according to plan, I do not find excuses or someone to blame. I remember the quote by Chris Grosser and ask myself where am I at now, what am I capable of, and how will I get there. The only way I will become successful in life is if I make it happen and not rely on anyone or anything. Opportunities do not come to you on a silver platter and certainly does not come in life when you least expect it. If you want an opportunity in life get up and go get it.

Putting people together to achieve a partnership and loyal customer. Having the opportunity to work with individuals or groups to find desired outcomes makes working fun. Being able to work in a position where you meet so many new faces creates a challenging but exciting work environment.

Goals and interests

Outside the classroom

I absolutely love anything outdoor. Before I start my work day, I go for a run in my neighborhood. I've picked up golf the over 3 years and can't seem to get enough of it. I try to go fishing throughout the year with a few friends of mine. I grew up playing soccer and bicycling at Hines Park.
