So as you mentioned, background in public accounting and honestly didn't really like it a whole lot. It's kind of boring. And but I did really enjoy working with small business owners and seeing the variety of how people run their business, what they do, what works, what doesn't work. And so that part of the business was very enjoyable to me as I got to see a lot of different aspects and learned a lot. Um, as you mentioned, from there, you know, I was a, an executive pastor at a large church for, for quite some time. And, uh, what a wonderful time that was. Very blessed to, to be able to spend my time and devote, um, to that effort and saw a lot of fruit from it. Um, but then was ready to go back into the business world.
