He’s at the start of the curve

About Myles

Myles was very athletic growing up and while he was never interested in school, he excelled on the track field. He had a dedication and drive that saw him working towards competing in the Olympics. However, after a torn ACL injury, Myles decided not to continue. He was at a crucial age in his career, and he decided to try something new.

Myles has always been good at problem solving and building relationships. He’s confident, has extreme focus and isn’t afraid of a challenge. After getting an administration job at a small design agency in his mid-twenties, Myles worked his way up and is now an account manager. He doesn’t think he’ll do this job until he retires though. Myles often thinks about becoming a sports coach.
