Summary
My back ground is non educational. In each job that I have had, I have begun from the most entry level position and learned every position inbetween to a level of excellence that advanced me to higher levels of management within the company.
I have learned what was given to me and in each case have left the position better than how I entered it.
My belief is to always honor my employer, do more than what is asked and always leave it better than how I found it.
A college degree is a great thing to have, however, it does not necessarily reflect the abilities and success any individual can have in any job.
