•Does the inventory match up to your goals and expectations?
You may have to do some fine-tuning but it’s a small price to pay to get to the top!

Q. What project/job was the most rewarding and why?

A. I attended Hillsborough Community College, University of South Florida, University of Tampa, and Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.
