Accomplishments

    My accomplishments would e be years of successful seasons in which I improved every operation i was apart of. I think the real benefit i can bring is a love and appreciation for this medicine ad the benefits it brings. I have personally seen and been a part of the healing that can happen when this medicine is replaced instead of horrible addictive modern medicine. It is because of this love and my thirst for knowledge that makes a valued part of operation I have ee apart of. I also think that anything worth doing is doing right and i take pride in what i do.
