want to thank you for the opportunity to be in front of you today to take the first steps in a new career with selling insurance. I am seeking a new career because I want to provide for my family, offer financial security, and work the hours that help me be a better father and husband at home. Hospitality has offered me great people skills, and I have learned how to take care of people's needs and anticipate people's needs, but does not offer the hours or the financial security that I'm looking for further in life.
