I’m the eldest of three daughters, who always had aspirations to go to college after high school. During High School I was given an opportunity to intern at an international bank. So for 25 years plus all my work experience has been in International Banking including working for a New Zealand bank, a Belgium bank and for 24 years, I worked for a Middle Eastern bank. Although I did not returned to school for formal higher education in close to 30 years, throughout the years I've received outside training and worked in the fx/mm back office, trading room, hedged the banks funding portfolio, processed payroll, and functioned as the administrative assistant to the bank manager. Currently I am unemployed but a full time student. Returning to school for a business - related degree has always been a goal of mine, however, I could never quite figure out the precise timing where I would be able to juggle all of the hats I wear. My intermediate goals include to complete my bachelors in business administration in order to increase my earning potential, by the time my 15 year - old graduates high school. I as well want to become bolder in pursuing upward moves on the career ladder, especially because I'll have the educational background which will give me leverage to support me as I move forward. Yes, I'm doing this afraid, but I intend to finish it, while enjoying the ride.

My ongoing assignment is my family - twenty-four years ago, I married my high school sweetheart who was, and is, the epitome of a supportive husband and amazing father to our two beautiful children. Raising our 15 year - old son and 11 year - old daughter to be respectful, law-abiding, God-fearing, and positive contributors to society remains one of our highest priorities as parents.
