Goal for 2023: Take on challenges I wouldn't normally take on to apply and stretch my talents. Subsequently, grow more comfortable at being uncomfortable.

"I love my job because of the people." I aim to be one of those people.
I heard this elsewhere and carry it around with me: Everybody's going to have bad days. The key is to have more good ones than bad. It's Friday, friends. Let's put today in the "good" column.

Today is my last day working for Golden Key Group as a contracted Army ROTC (Official Page) instructor. It was an absolutely rewarding experience that I will cherish forever. GKG really took care of me and I would work for them again in an instant.
