Writing is Therapeutic (at least it is for me)
Born and raised on the south side of Chicago, in 1974. I was born three days before Thanksgiving. I always considered myself a "gift" to society, because I have always been a giver. I walked on my 1st birthday and attended school from the age of 18 months to 32.
From high school through college, I studied everything from business administration, psychology, starting a business, tax law, and various other subjects that have enabled me to do what I love which is almost everything I set my mind to. One thing about me, I'm going to try it out and if I don't succed-I will write about it. My writing skills is the very reason, that I passed chemistry in college. I follow directions (when I agree with them) but every experiment that was assigned, my results would be way off, but the written report-was always 100%.
Creativity is what I feed off of.
EXAMPLE:
I actually moved during the pandemic. It was June, 2020. I took a few losses in 2019, which resulted to me staying with my mom from January to June. I ended up moving back to my original stomping grounds since I was born.... OVA EAST.. Which is on the south side of Chicago -Remember guys-I work from home so my job did not see any reason why I was not able to work and move at the same time. So I did-I put my laptop in my Coach Handbag, packed the car, made one stop to the storage, went to the apartment, sat on the new, fresh carpet, plugged in the laptop, got to working and got to shopping. My apartment is very small 1 bedroom apartment. The smallest I have ever had, but fell in love with my lakefront view. I think of at least 5 business daily.
Maybe was going through an Arts N Crafts phase-I researched everything needed to start my candle hobby/business-I just keep picturing "My Own Business Space" The image is not as clear as I want it to be, but mark my words, as you experience this journey with me.... I will accomplish everything I manifested.
I worked in more than 40% of the call centers in Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin, over the past 20 years. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A CAREER IN CLERICAL/CUSTOMER SERVice
- 1st Party

- Licensed Health Insurance Agent
I have gained experience and networked with quite a few individuals and organizations.. I have attended business seminars as a hobby, educating myself to assist others. I have conducted a few workshops of my own ranging from small business start ups and one on one business coaching as a result of living/working in a cubicle, studying and researching everything I thought about learning.
THE PANDEMIC WAS THE ULTIMATE GAME CHANGER FOR ME-
I had just became a Licensed Medicare Sales Agent October of 2019. I waited YEARRRSSSS for a company to pay for license which was $249 two day course and a $175 exam. Originally, paid out of pocket because at the time (summer of 2019, while was working as a desk clerk/security guard of facilities that were comparable to adult detention centers. Needless to say, writing and reading comes to me like breathing so I thats what I did. I guess, I forgot about the retention part, because at test time-not only did I rush the online exam from work-I didnt remember anything and failed. Because, God loves me, 2 days later I received a call from one of my previous managers at a health insurance call center I worked for through an employment agency. She called me from getting my resume from Indeed.com. Her exact words... I don't remember you having your initial license, but I remember you being one of my biggest go getters on the phone. I replied.. Well, I'm still a hustler, and now I am licensed.
Because of the love and respect I had for her... I can feel her being proud of the accomplishments through the phone. My original phone interview ended up being my initial hiring process. That was a Wednesday, and I started work in a small and elegant call center on Michigan Avenue in Downtown Chicago the following Monday-Long Story short, they paid for my AHIP ceritification-which opened another vivid door that I was able to gain lots of experiences, skills, and resources.
The first Monday of March, 2020. I had just came back from a 2 1/2 day weekend because I had just passed my Life Insurance Agent Exam, paid for by my company with Kaplan University.... I was so excited because now I am about to have two lines of insurance to practice on.... Well 2 hours after my start time, they had an emergency meeting announcinc COVID-sent us home and had laptops delivered that following Friday. Because, I am licensed and like doing my own thing.... Long story short, I am at my 5th job, still working from home... still a licensed insurance agent but I dreamed of having multiples streams of income and business all my life so hear I am taking you in and out of my journey willing to share what I have obtained in hopes it inspires you to up it a notch and take whatever dream you have to the next level....
Do not sleep on Temporary/Employment Agencies-I have got my foot in so many doors this route.
Anyway,
You will see me cover different aspects of entrepreneurship, ranging from
till quickly developing the mindset to take action and apply it to your business
