Thank you, Stan.

Happy to be here.

Yeah, it's a story that started a long time ago and never thought I'd be where I am and happy to say that the journey has certainly had its ups and downs, but it it's not a journey I would not want to ever take again because it's certainly been worth it.

You know, it actually it's funny because I started out in high school.

I'm going a little further back.

I started out in high school working for a donut shop.

Fast forward till I was twenty.

And bottom line, I was given an opportunity.

And that's what happens in our lives.

Lucky for all of us is that we get opportunities, doors open, and somebody comes into our life that allows us to see what we really maybe want to do with our life.

And this gentleman

Offered me a donut shop at a deal that I couldn't pass up.

And it was my first experience being an entrepreneur.

It was MJ's Donuts and Cookies.

I started out with that for three years, and that's where I got the bug as far as being an entrepreneur or being a business owner.

So that's where it started.

I didn't go to college.

I didn't go to all that stuff.

I just was working my way through trying to figure out what I wanted to do.

Then after I sold that, my sister.
