About Me

I have posted an attached resume (therefore I will not go through individually to enter employment history).

I truly believe all I need is a chance to prove myself in any field, as I am a quick learner and hard worker. My understanding of people and compassion for all is my greatest attribute. To be honest... I am ignorant of a lot. I have much to learn, and am more than willing to accept advice and direction.

My current career/education goals are as follows:

ASAP - find a job that I actually like (have one now that at least pays bills) and fits with school
Within 2 years - Complete MBA
Within 6 years - Complete PhD
Within 6-7 years - Find job as professor (START CAREER), and continue my research!

My current personal goals are as follows:

Within 2 years - I would love to have blog site running smoothly
Within 5 years (or ASAP) - I would like to financially independent (be able to pay bills and save)
Within 5 years - I would like to get married and possibly start a family
Within 10 years - I would LOVE to have student loans paid off!
Within 10 years - I would like to have mortgage paid off.
Within 15 years - I would like to have at least one book written

Interests

I am enamored with intellectual conversations and learning. I love sports and play a variety with reasonable amount of skill (favorite is basketball). I love spending time with friends and family - I am more interested in personal intimate connections rather than huge groups. I am very much interested in helping others, and truly believe we are all connected. I want to fill my life with compassion and understanding. I truly believe it is my understanding that will propel me to succeed!
