Education and Training
Devry University | CitySome College (No Degree) in Accounting And Finance

Started going to Dery University to get my Accounting and Finance degree since my job had me listed as an Accountant with hardly any accounting history.

I was only going part-time from 2008-2011 so vI never completed to get my degree.

I stopped going because I was working a lot more hours (voluntarily) due to the cut-backs and more work being put on me with no assistance.
