One of my best friends, Josh Netherton, is the kind of person who “goes for it”. He’s been that way since I met him and it’s something I really admire. Not only does he go for it, but I’ve never seen him fail. Years ago, he proclaimed “I’m going to do a triathlon” and I quickly learned to not doubt Josh – even though his training food of choice was Taco Bell (which caused most of my doubts), I was there to witness him cross several finish lines.
In the last two years, he’s gone for it again, this time with his career. He was running biology labs at Spelman college and growing increasingly unhappy. So, he decided to pursue a career in web development and design, and went for it. With little “traditional training or experience”, he quickly built a portfolio and landed a job at Ketchum. Now a year or so later, he’s decided to go even further and do freelance full-time. I have absolutely zero doubts he’ll be successful with it. In fact, he’s working on re-designing my company’s website and so far, I’m loving what he’s come up with.
Now for the plug… If you need any web development or design work done, give Josh a shout. I promise you’ll be happy you did.
Wow…all I can say is thanks for the kind words and the support. You’ve been a tremendous help during my transition. And I have to say that I especially like that plug at the end
