Accomplishments
I graduated from high school in 1977. I did an intensive search to retrieve that diploma, but I was not able to locate it. Now I must take another route to obtain my GED or Diploma to further my career. I am currently in the process of enrolling in the Clark County Adult School to accomplish this. When that is finished, I will enroll at UEI College in Las Vegas, NV. I will be taking the Medical Insurance Billing and Coding course. These are my current goals and I will Accomplish Them.
