I’m a leader. All my life, I’ve taken command of my own life, whether it be with school, extra-curriculars, or simple everyday situations. I prided myself on taking initiative and leading a group to success. For me, being a leader was inherent while being a follower was unnatural.

I found that using career websites, such as CareerSaint or Indeed.com, did not result in me finding much because I would send out my resume, and not really know who my resume went to so I could not follow up with the company if I wanted to.

“everything worth having is worth working for”. As a result, from a very early age they put me to work. To this day, I can accredit my hard work ethic to the shaping that my parents conducted during my childhood. My behavior was impacted by shaping because I would never expect to be given money for free. If I wanted a candy bar at the store it required me to pull weeds. If I wanted a $20.00 toy, then I would have to work multiple jobs so that my parents would pay me .50. Then I would have to…
