Howdy everyone and thanks to those of you that have been praying for me for the last few months in regard to a job I have been wanting.

Today I signed an offer letter from the Springfield, Missouri News-Leader (our local paper) to become a Multimedia Reporter. In short, the job entails me shooting videos for the News-Leader's website and other snippets to augment all the other departments of the paper.

I will be starting my new gig May 19, and I wish it were here already!

Praise God for providing me the job I truly wanted here in Springfield. Now I can get settled!

That sounds like an awesome job!

I used to live in Springfield when I was young, until my family relocated to Northwest Arkansas. If we wanted to head someplace that felt "big" (and not hick town) then Springfield was where we went since it was only an hour and a half away (if we didn't end up just going to Branson instead.... sad huh).

Thanks everyone. I am honestly so blessed by this opportunity.

This is also a testimony to how valuable training is in the military. I had many instructors and supervisors, military and civilian, who shared their knowledge with me, and everything I know now is a great mix of their guidance, my knowledge and the Lord's favor.

Steve Prefontaine said it best: "To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift."

You can bet I'll go at this job 125%.

Talk about a job being in your "wheel-house"

You deserve the best and will do great.
