My Biggest Decision in College Made Me a Statistic
Around two years ago, I made the biggest decision of my life. This decision is more common than you'd think, but to me, it felt freeing like I'd grown some wings and soared. However, it also felt so wrong because I thought, "What would people think?"

Lessons from Project Management
Before the housing market crash of 2008, I thrived in a small kitchen & bath retail store and cabinet shop. I was the project and business manager. This path taught me a lot about builders, owners, sales, product information, and of course customers. In 4 short years of being in this shop, I pretty much did everything the owner did. Our slogan was from conception to completion we will make your dream come true. I worked with every kind of builder, contractor, and customers that would come through our doors. Most were nice and friendly people that were excited to have their dream kitchen or bath that they’ve always wanted. Others had to rebuild from a fire or damage and needed to work within a budget usually dictated by insurance companies.
