I just sort of breezed through high school, it was fun, and I was a pretty good student. I could have easily gone on to college, but I wanted to get out there and get a job.

In order to be promoted to the Senior Management level, my employer required that I have a degree. Briarwood was the only college offering a Saturday condensed program that fit into my time schedule. I have gained many additional skills, which I can apply in my current career and also in future endeavors.

I do plan to advance in my current career at Marriott International as well as open several businesses independently. I am Paul Pruitt. I AM BRIARWOOD.
