Academic Mission Statement

What do I want from my life? I have many goals in my life that I wanted to fulfill; one of those goals is to have economic security. During these past 18 months that our country was submerged in recession, it pressed me to reflect on how important it is to have economic security. During that period of time, I was reflecting about which would be the best plan of action that can help me to reach my goals. I came to the conclusion that the only good plan was to go back to the University and to obtain a degree. I currently work in a company as a general manager, but that does not give me the security that I need to project my future. And this was the main reason, why I decide to enroll in DeVry University. Now that I’m an active student, I feel that I am constructing a bright future and that my goals are going to become a reality once I graduate. After graduation, my plan is to work for the government for few years, after that period of time; I’m planning to develop my own company that would be dedicated to accounting services for individuals, companies, and to offer financial advice.

I value my family, the quality of time that I can spend with them, I value the moments when we laugh because those will rejoice our lives, I value the good memories of my past, I most value my marriage and all the years of being together with my wife and daughter, and also I value life itself and the greatness of God.
What are my talents?
I have few talents that will help me in the pursue of my dreams. Organization is one of those talents, since I was very little, I was very organize, and methodic. Problem solver is another talent that I have, when there is a problem, I’m the first one to analyze and try to find possible solutions. Last but not least, being self sufficient is another of my strongholds, if there is no help; I always find the ways to resolve the problems on my own. At the end of my life, what do I want to have accomplished?
At the end of my
