I have always been intrigued with money. My passion for money, along with my ability to sprint, eventually took me to college. I later graduated from the University of South Carolina with a degree in Retail Management. It was here where I was able to challenge my boundaries and scratch my itch.
Upon graduation, I interned with Nordstrom where I learned a lot about the inner workings of the retail industry. Soon after I would go on to receive an additional degree in Financial Management when I joined the Air Force as a Financial Comptroller. At times, as a young Airman, I was in charge of a multi-million dollar budgets very early in my career. This experience was paramount in my quest for financial enlightenment.
I was fortunate enough to learn a great deal about government budgeting, management, and spending. Along with having financial exposure, I was also able to rack up some serious air time. In my three years with the Air Force I visited over 20 countries on humanitarian missions. These missions included everything from currency exchange, fee negotiation, to multi pallet drop offs. I have since gone on to pursue other endeavors in my military and civilian careers. The book on Christopher Lawson is still being written so stay tuned.view less
