So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot.

I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
