What motivates him is the desire to grow and learn, that if you don’t stay up to date, you will get left behind.  Thirst for knowledge - to help in many different areas and PR is a strong suit Loves to give back to any organizations with kids  A new question I tried to formulate. Focusing on what good we did do, not what didn’t happen Appreciating the moments and opportunities Suggestions to recent college graduates:  Working in some field exposed to a bunch of businesses  Network and Connect with people  Golden Era of being able to reach any person and do business with people all around the world “IF today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?” - Steve Jobs Alex’s Gift of Laughter and being friendly; Smile and pass it on.  Prime 112 in Miami when I bring on a big PR client  Links  revolvingmindmedia.com
