Where It All Started

It was the beginning of a new journey that he once thought wasn’t possible for his life due to his life circumstances and the environment he lived in. Kris eventually fell in love with marketing and knew that it could one day be his ticket to a better life. After years of hard work, tons of mistakes, and a refusal to quit, Kris began to see the life he dreamed about becoming his reality.
