What do you attribute your success to?

  • My parents always showed me, by their own actions how important it is to always be willing to help others in anyway that you can, My father works in IT and mother was a teacher for Detroit public high schools, they both worked full time and yet some how managed to show compassion and empathy for others, always willing to help family and friends in any way they could and that sense of a need to be of service to others has always been instilled in me.
