What do you like about your job?

Where did you work before YJC?

City Colleges of Chicago as the Dean of Construction Technology Programs.

What was your first job?

McDonalds.

What did you learn from your first job?

I learned that I could get along with practically anyone (you needed patience with the both the team and customers) and how to make the best ice cream cones ever!

Has your career path gone how you expected?

I wanted to be a comedian, so I guess not, but thereafter, my career has gone as expected.

Fun fact:

I have nearly 200 pairs of shoes and am considered a “sneakerhead”.
