Presence

From Heart Talk by Jack Branch

5. Presence

I wan not a confident person before entering prison, but I realized that I was not only gifted at learning, but I had a talent for teaching others, and articulating concepts and ideas to groups and larger audiences.

I'm on a path that I never expected when I entered prison. I will be able to fulfill the promise I made to myself to honor my friend who lost his life.

I'm hoping my time at General Assembly will help me polish the skills I developed in The Last Mile and lead me to a career as a software developer. I have no doubt that I will be successful, and never return to prison.
