About Me

I'm just a guy who loves what he does professionally and hopes to stay current on the pulse of the job-seeker community to help explore better practices that connect them with potential employers.

I prefer Fall, am currently enduring my love/hate relationship with the sport of golf (player not spectator), still don't understand why a bag of chips or box of cereal is only half-full upon purchase (I blame the MAN), and love the new "crisp apple"-scented Purell. I'm sure there's more but it's like inconsequential...
