Life After the B.S.

Talk about being in the right spot at the right time, by the time I was completing my BS in Telecommunications Management, a professor spot became available at DeVry, the V.A. was agreeing to allow the Mayo Clinic to fix my leg, and I was beginning to enjoy living in Kansas City. I usually say this is a case of "I was good enough and they were in need enough." Either way, it provided a beneficial platform in which to work and get my leg fixed. Most important, was getting the surgeries I needed.
