Growing up in Milford, Kansas there was much to learn and experience. My parents instilled an importance of being gracious, generous, and educated. Family dinners gathered around the kitchen table were times of much joy and togetherness. Graduating from Junction City High School and then getting a BS in Business helped establish a basis for my educational foundation.

Travel has always been on of my hobbies and passions. Being able to travel to the pyramids has been one of the highlights of my life. Traveling to a place with such a rich history and character was nothing short of amazing and awe inspiring.

Adequately managing money whether your own personal or that of a company can be a big responsibility. Possessing the skills and ability to do just that can come from knowledge like the concepts in this class.

For me the time value of money concept is one that can be directly translated to my personal and professional life. If you have the ability to turn $1 into $2 and that then turns into $10 why would you not take the risk to ensure being able to continue working and having money to continue your business. Longevity and growth are concepts that are rapidly emerging as important and being able to ensure both will ensure years of open doors and repeat customers.
