Additional Information

I am very interested in the peer position with your company. I have been involved with cr program at church and also with helping a friend open up men's rehab facility back in Tuscaloosa, Al. I have been through several programs myself from active drug addiction back in the day, to trying to escape from a couple different abusive relationships, and even through mental health therapy and so on. I know that God uses Me to help touch v other people's lives and to be a great asset to the community. I have learned from things throughout my life and I want to continue helping others change their lives as well. If you give Me an opportunity to be a part of your company and family I know that I won't let you down and I am a a living walking miracle from God and if he can help Me I Can help Show Others He Can & Will Help Them Too. Someone once asked Me what is it that I like to do for fun and I simply responded with Helping Others that is what makes Me Happy!
