I have known Alan for over 15 years. Throughout our journey together, Alan has exemplified only the highest of standards and values. During his teenage years, Alan decided to dedicate his summers to work at the public pool ensuring the safety and well being of the community. As co-captain of his high school soccer team, Alan lead his team to the first of many regional championships through sheer dedication and a hard work ethic. After high-school, Alan continued to excel in his studies as he earned his Bachelor's degree at DePaul university and eventually was offered a position as a law enforcement officer for the Chicago Police Department. His endless hunger for knowledge led him to his current position in Tennessee in order to pursue a Law degree. Throughout this entire time, Alan has shown constant companionship to his friends and everlasting love and loyalty to his family. There is no better candidate than Alan to take care of a loved one (even if it is a four legged kind).
