Accomplishments
- I been operating a small business for several years under the wrong guidelines because i did not understand the basics of running a structured business
- After correcting several structure mistakes,I self funded all my projects and made a lane for myself and despite the odds that has always been stacked against me i still find ways to stay relevant W/O the promotions,& big budgets that a lot of my field rivals have.Im still hungry for not only the wealth in the industry but more for the education i receives with this hands on task
