There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.
Colin Powell

Additional Information

I'm told to not mention my criminal history in a resume, but my morals force me to be upfront. I have done 17 years in jails, prisons and institutions in my life for mistakes made due immaturity and a lack of personal goals. My personal struggles have molded me into the man I choose to be today, and I am not proud of the things I have done, I am proud and comfortable with the man I have become. I'm hungry for success and thirsty for knowledge. What I seek is a career more than a job. A company I can dedicate my working life to. I will learn, complete any schooling, obtain any certificates, be someone needed to be the best asset I can be to the overall health of the company. Given an opportunity, I will not disappointment. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration in my application.
