I am just an average person, no better than anyone else, but someone who takes his education very serious. For whatever reason, I waited over 20 years to decide to take the first steps to go to college. Before going to college, my life was the same everyday and nothing made me feel fulfilled or happy with where my life was heading. Eventually, I got tired of letting another day pass by while I did nothing to work towards achieving my lifetime goal, which is to be an attorney.

Obviously I wish I would have gone straight to college right after graduating high school, but I guess there was more that I needed to learn still in my life before I started that journey. At the age of 44 years old, I took that leap into the unknown and decided to go to college for paralegal studies, knowing that my success would be decided based on how much hard work I would put towards my studies, the dedication and commitment that I would give towards my education, and the determination and mindset that I would have to not fail, but ultimately succeed. By continuing to stay focused and believing in myself, I believe I succeeded in accomplishing those goals so far.
