My story, from an 80,000-foot view:
18 yrs old:
Dropped out of college after a teacher said, “You’re not good enough.” Letting her words dictate my potential delayed my success, but it fueled a fire I couldn’t ignore. Took a sales job going door-to-door, making over 150 calls a day.
21 yrs old:
Invested over $7,500 I didn’t have into a sales mentor who never gave me handouts—but set me on the right path toward winning in corporate.
Joined an award-winning company, worked 80-hour weeks, and earned top 10% sales recognition.
28 yrs old:
Decided to pursue corporate training. I met my wife, who told me, “You’re smart enough to go back to college.” Balanced side hustles, stand-up comedy, and school while pursuing a degree in Organizational Behavior and Leadership—a fancy way of saying, “I studied how to talk to people and get stuff done.”
33 yrs old:
I graduated college, became a sales manager, and helped a team achieve explosive results—only to be laid off due to the pandemic. This moment was humbling but also a positive turning point.
Today:
I am a highly skilled Enablement Training Expert who works full-time and does part-time consultant work to help organizations improve measurable outcomes while pursuing my MBA.
