Summary

I have had a job since the age of 11. I love to work. My employer is doing me a favor employing me not the other way around.

Choice AI have been clean and sober, without relapse, since March 17th 1985. I lived in a recovery House then a 3/4 House for the first 91/2 months of my sobriety. I have worked with many hundreds of newly sober men and woman in the last 10 plus years on the New Choice unit of the Pavilion Hospital. I have received many positive feedbacks from New Choice Alumni over the years.
