Description
Don't be put off by what looks like me taking five years to complete my bachelor's degree! In reality I spent one year in the army and working at a travel agency in LA, and during another I did half my master's studies.
I received my bachelor's with a total of three years work and am halfway done with my master's... let's see how that goes now that I'm entrepreneuring.
