Growing up in a single household of four, and being elected head of household very early in my life, I realized the paramount need to make money to help support my family.  As I was building my career as an artist, I had to find a professional endeavor that would allow me to generate income in-between gigs.  With no formal professional work experience and no degree, this pursuit proved to be difficult.  I was eventually blessed with an interview with a residential safety company, and the rest is history.   Over the years to follow, I developed a great skill for servicing customers, training, managing, leading, coaching, and mentoring team members.
