Hi my name is Delfon King, I’m 27yrs old with dreams of ha flourishing career in solar energy, I’ll be a student attempting the Electrician Technician course at UEI college jan 27th 2024. My main goal while attempting the program is to be a dry sponge, id like to soak in and retain as much knowledge as I can to be the best that I can possibly be and graduate at the top of my class. I want to make not only my myself and my family proud, but show my siblings and the people around me that anything is possible if you put your mind to it and work hard. Regardless of where you’re at in life or how long it took you filet there or start, it is still possible and if I can do it you can. I am currently unemployed and would love to make my education my main priority however, life doesn’t stop for anyone so I am currently looking for employment. I have no financial support other than government loans in order to pay for school, transportation or anything and any grants I can get my hands I would make the world of a difference and would make achievement my goal much more tangible.

Hello reader my name is Delfon King, I don’t like my first name so I go by “King”, kind of makes me feel like royalty. I am 27, unemployed and at a standstill in life. Before graduating high school I always envisioned myself independent and out of my parents house by 18. I saw myself rich by 21, but made the mistake of taking a break after high school. I became content working 9-5s and continuously put off furthering my education until eventually it was no longer a thought. 9yrs down the line and im full of regrets.
This is my third try at college/trade school. My first attempt was at UTI college in Avondale, Az, I attended the auto tech. course for 6months and maintained a 4.5gpa up until I wrecked my motorcycle and was forced to drop out as a result of unwavered class fees.
My second attempt at school was at UEI college in Phoenix, Az. I enrolled with an ex and encouraged her to attend the m
A program while I was in the hvac course; however I wasn’t employed at the time, had no financial backing or support of any kind and was overwhelmed with the thought of owing a second student loan. Eleventh life happened and we both ended up falling off track and putting a halt to furthering out education.
They said third times always the charm; this time around, I re-enrolled back with UEI. This time I’m enrolled in the electrical technician program and my determination is unmatched. Nomore excuses and nomore letting life have its way. I have a new found sense of urgency and a lust to follow through to the end. I will graduate, and at the top of my class, I won’t let anything hold me back, and I will flourish in my career after. I am 27yrs old, live with my mom and have nothing to my name, I want to finish trade school so I can make something of myself and support my people.
