Start Of My Blogging Life

So, with inspiration from my good friend Amy Bloom, I have decided to create a blog. The purpose of this blog will be to update all of my friends, family, and colleagues about whats going on in my life.

In the fall of 2006 I graduated from the University of New Mexico with a degree in Business, with a focus in Human Resources. I graduated Cum Laude, which means that I had a Cumulative GPA higher than a 3.5. In June of 2007 I moved from Albuquerque, NM to Denver, CO.

Currently, I am working for IBM in their Global Business Services Consulting Practice. I started working on February 5, 2007. With my job, I travel 100% of the time. Currently my project is in Toledo, OH with Dana (Apparently they make auto parts). So every Sunday I fly from Denver, CO to Detroit, MI. In Detroit, I pick up a rental car, and drive 1 hour to Toledo. The work here is tough, but my project team is awesome, which makes it worthwhile!

I have been able to see some amazing places while working with IBM. Since February 2007 I have been to Washington DC, Atlanta GA, New York (Armonk is our corporate headquarters), Nashville TN, Chicago IL, Detroit MI, Cincinnati OH, Toledo OH, Miami FL, Puerto Rico, Turks and Caicos, the Bahamas, St Thomas USVI, San Jose Costa Rica, Santo Domingo Dominican Republic, and Zurich Switzerland.

In November of 2007, I purchased my first home! I bought a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom townhouse in Aurora, CO. I have since enjoyed every minute of being a homeowner, yes, even paying a mortgage every month! Here are a few pictures of my place:

I never imagined that all of my hard work through high school and college would pay off like this. I enjoy every minute of my life, and I thank God everyday for providing me with all of these amazing gifts in life.
