I Want To Be Your Bobby Flay: Your College Degree Is Raw Meat

My wife is really into food network which means I now watch a lot of food network. I have to admit I’ve become a much better cook but I miss sportscenter.

Rachel Ray, Bobby Flay, and all the famous chefs are great to watch because they teach me how to take normal ingredients and turn them into something amazing.  I want to be your Bobby Flay! For years I’d look at my bachelors degree hanging on the wall, check out my beautiful Masters degree shining in its frame, smirk as I walked into the Pentagon for work, and just imagine all the great opportunities that would head my way….until they never did!  A college degree is NOT a beautiful meal, it is an ingredient. Heck it can be the beautiful rib eye you bought but it’s still just a piece of raw meat.

Your degree can be the meat, your leadership experiences can be the great spices, your high GPA can be some herbs, your internships can be the potatoes, and Washington, D.C. can be your kitchen.  Obviously you have to know the recipe to put them all together into an amazing meal.  Do you get my analogy? Many people think their ingredients will speak for themselves but you have to become a chef that can blend them together into something amazing.

Let me be your Bobby Flay and teach you how to do it! D.C. Boot Camp is like my own food network show for your career as I walk you step-by-step to becoming the seasoned professional you want to be!
