Summary
Career path and fulfillment is often something that can be one of the most important things that one can strive for. When making career decisions motivation may be the single most important and valuable aspect of this journey. My objective is to take my skills such as, sales experience, teaching, management, coordinating, planning , organization, and team work into my career path. I long to learn new skills and strive for constant progress in my career and life. Having a background in teaching, outside sales, and the fire service has brought out the competitive, driven, and thoughtful person that I am. I hope to model this through my journey leading me to career fulfillment and purpose.
