About (Summary)
I am an undergraduate Psychology-Sociology double major at SUNY Plattsburgh heading into my second semester. I transferred in the Fall of 2015 from Clinton Community College after graduating as Valedictorian with two Associates degrees, a Certificate, and a 4.0 GPA. I entered college at the age of 28, after I had accumulated several years of work experience. I worked my way up to management for the few companies that I had worked for after graduating High School in 2004. I am a dedicated and detail oriented family man, who is now pursuing my dreams of higher education.
