Who Am I?

I moved to the United States when I was 12 years old. As a child, my mother called me “Lek-
Lek” because as a baby I would always say “lek-lek-lek-lek”. When I was a kid, I wanted to be a
doctor when I grew up. Instead of becoming a doctor, some of my past jobs were working in a
sushi restaurant and as stock person at a couple of clothing stores. I also have a degree in
Computer Engineering. One of my most rewarding job experiences was working as a CNA for 3
years. If I wasn’t working at ADP, I think I would be working as a chef.

My most embarrassing moment would have to be, being at a family event and dancing with the
parent of a friend – “without restriction”. Immediately after the dance was over I said to myself
“Wow, I just did THAT”. I blame it on MTV, BET and Soul Train.

If I could go back in time and give my younger self some advice, it would be not to new jack my
friend’s parent in front of all my friends and family– no, not really. I would probably teach
myself how and when to use credit cards, but that’s about it. I believe that everything happens
for a reason. Everything that has happened has led me to where I am today. I’m married with 3
children and purchased a home 2 years ago.

My favorite thing about working at ADP is the variety of people I get to interact with. They have
become part of my extended family. I don’t have to be face to face with my co-workers to have
a relationship with them. My co-workers make it easy to wake up and go to work each day



Superman vs Batman is a great comic book movie. For all
comic book lovers it gives you a sneak peak on Justice
League like Wonder Woman and others It also has a great
story line and by the looks of it there is more to come.
One of DC comics best movie yet.
