“I’ve had over twenty years of formal education, but I will never stop learning. Each person I interact with is unique and provides me with a unique challenge to understand them in the context that they present their life to me. There is always something to learn from everyone if you take the time to listen. I take pride in helping people every day and in learning something new every day."
