Summary
Just wanted to let you know a little bit about me. I am 19 years old and will be 20 in August. I go to Indiana University Kokomo and am getting my Business Management and Business Marketing Degree. My dad is a head salesman at Van Drunen Farms and his job has always interested me because of the interactions he gets to have with his customers. The connections he makes through work also mean a lot to him and his company for success, which I’ve always seen as something that highly interests me. Sales isn’t just a job to me, it’s a career. Sales is something that I want to do for the rest of my life. Success in the sales business is very crucial for me and my future. I played soccer, basketball, and golf in high-school. I am now currently enrolled at Indiana University Kokomo and am on scholarship for playing on their men’s golf team. I come from Christian beliefs which are very important to me. My family goes to church every Sunday. We go to Community Church of Roselawn. I completed my profession of faith my junior year of highschool.
