Prospect: Along my journey I have leard that the path from point A to point B isn't always linear. I have had the opportunity to study and gain skills from several colleges, and although my educational career has been unconventional, it has allowed me to meet many different people and be exposed to a variety of educational methods. I am expected to receive my Bachelors degree in the early summer of 2018, but I believe that learning never stops. My goal is to work for a company that has a positive outlook, and allows me to be creative when applicable.
