Originally from a small town in Mississippi. Played “store” and “marketing” as a kid; had my own candy business. I come from family of a generation of farmers and fisherman who sold their products (e.g. corn, green beans, tomatoes, onions, etc., jams/jelly’s, pies, and fish) to neighbors in the community and possibly local stores. My dad was a Marine, so I grew up in North Carolina for a little while before moving to Minnesota. While I was creating service learning trips in college and an exchange study at Clark Atlanta University I met friends from South Carolina (e.g. I know of Charleston, Columbia, Greenville, and Irmo). Continuing education at Harvard, Stanford, Yale, Columbia University New York, University of Cape Town South Africa, IE Business School Madrid Spain, and University of Virginia Darden School of Business to expand my skills, business, and gain more clients. Will have a doctorate degree between December 2019 and March 30, 2019; I pursued the degree to learn skills needed to expand my firms. Own a conglomerate corporation which has a (1) Public Relations subsidiary and (2) Advertising and Marketing subsidiary; I lead and am legally responsible for the entire company (president), hire applicants (ceo), and select which companies we work with, globally (ceo); I love my job because it aligns with my skills and career interests. 3 CAREER PERSONALITY PROFILES - MARKETING About Me: Dream BIG!
