1. PERSONAL BRAND EXPLORATION
Holton Pepper
Project & Portfolio I: Week 1
February 3rd, 2022

2. I’m defined by what happens to me. There's 2 things that
can happen when you play the game of life, you either Win,
or you learn. Raised in the church, I only place God first
and He provides a strong path for me to walk on. Family,
Baseball, and Football have been strong foundations I've
been able to set myself upon. My main morale is that
whatever is started, must be finished. Nothing is worth
having unless its earned.
