Summary
I've grown up wanting to help people in any way I can. When I started in car sales, I realized many people aren't too familiar with technology, but most importantly, they are skeptical of it. After doing sales for some time, I realized it wasn't what I wanted to do for my life, and it just wasn't my dream career. I know some people who work with technology, whether it is building AIs or doing cybersecurity. Everyone said I didn't know if I'd like it or not, but as I do it, I love it. They have all been doing it now for 10-plus years, and they are still happy they tried it. Since I was in high school, my senior year, I have been doing 60-plus hour a week. With that being said, I'll put in the work and make sure I can get everything done above the manager's expectations. I'm easy to train, and I am motivated not just to work but also to learn new things. I live by 2 beautiful quotes. 1. "The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you" - B.B. King. 2. "An investment in knowledge pays the best interest." - Benjamin Franklin
