The first picture is my first 
summer doing door to door sales when I was 19.  I started selling pest control door to door. I thought it was fake, but the program is designed to pay for college tuition in one summer. I had no other option, or I would not attend college. I was shipped alone across the country, to a place called Providence Rhode Island. That leap of faith changed my life forever. Made me realize that we are in control of our future. Sacrificing six summers without being near friends, family, boating, lakes, campfires; instead walking 6+ miles every day in the humid 100 degree heat, being told daily that I am lower than a garbage man, waking up early & going to bed every night mentally telling myself to not quit- every single day. For six years. It’s hard, but I’ve learned success does truly require sacrifice. There is no way around it. It brings me to tears reflecting over the last 6 years and I’m so thankful for every second. The opportunity has allowed me to work alongside the best leadership, management, best friends, and create unique life long friendships that will last forever. I have been lucky enough to train & manage 100’s of skilled sales reps, manage top sales teams across the country, generate $15+ million dollars in revenue for the company I was with, travel all over the country to work with teams- and also experience failure, and learn how to rebuild myself from the ground up to be the best. I am so thankful for everyone that has trusted me to be their leader over the years, and build something so unique together. 

I am eager to post this with gratitude for everyone who has supported me over the years. Today marks the day for something very special to me. Today marks the first day of the summer sales program for Flex. This has been something I’ve been building for 6 years- together with the best leadership in the industry that I proudly call my best friends. Today marks the day that another broke college student might board a fight, by himself, and change his life forever. It makes me bittersweet- and excited for the massive future ahead of us. It’s just the beginning of something massive, and I’m so thankful to do it with the best.
