I believe that integrity and work ethic are two things that can't be taught and two things that are fundamental in this career field. Although there will always be other applicants that may have more time on the job or more certifications, I can confidently say I am at the top of the list when it comes to self-discipline, honesty, good character, and eagerness to be taught and to teach. I truly believe that this career is not a right, but a privilege.
