Taking off in Space City

Hey everyone,

Right out of the University of Houston's Cullen College of Engineering, I was given the unique opportunity to be the project manager for a handful of projects to upgrade and automate pipeline operations.  Although the oil and gas glut is a gift to the American people, the opportunities for young professionals in the industry were only trickling.  Rather than waiting for the next round of cuts, I decided to make my exit and climb the next big learning curve that will allow me to design the life I want to lead.

One Ultimate Beginner's Guide, a couple of podcasts, numerous blog posts, and a Shia Labeouf "JUST DO IT" video later - here I am!

I hope to complete one deal a month to sustain my current lifestyle, whether it be through referrals or other methods of creative financing - I'll find a way to make it happen.

I'm jumping into the deep end, figuring it out as I go, and hopefully, I'll see you guys on the other end.

Jimmy
