During my COVID - 19 induced education sabbatical I took advice from Stephen Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by focusing on the Habit Sharpen the Saw. I decided to retool and upgrade some skills. I did so by obtaining three valuable certifications; Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt, Cyber Security 60 Hour Certificate through St. Louis University and Project Manager Professional through PMI. I'm glad I had the time to upgrade my professional skills and become more valuable.
