Having worked a myriad of assignments from the mundane to the ultra-stressful, he has seen people at their best and, unfortunately; at their worst. Armed with these experiences Top has made it his mission to take what he has learned about the real life, "human condition," and pass it on so that others might benefit without having to endure unnecessary, learning-curve pitfalls.While possessing a Bachelor's Degree in Business and a Master's Degree in Organizational Management, and believing that higher education greatly improves critical thinking, he also firmly believes that life skills and knowledge are born from numerous other places outside of Academia. Therefore; he incorporates lessons from a wide range of origins, then fuses them together in a simple, easy to grasp format.
