Today was a memorable day for all of Houston due to the flooding, and for my husband and I because he finally heard about the job he'd interviewed for and was waiting on -- he got it!
He summed up the process better than I can, and so I just pulled his posting, where he sweetly thanks me, from Facebook. Congratulations, its because of all of your hard work that you will get to be a full-time college professor!!
Kevin's facebook post to let friends and family know:
I haven't really put much on Facebook about this, but in March I applied for a full time faculty position that opened up at the college I have been teaching at since 2012. Today, I received word that I have been selected for the position! It was one of the best calls I have ever received! Words cannot describe how excited I am right now! As some of you may know, in 2010 I decided to take a risk and make a major career change from Software Engineering to becoming a college professor. Now I can finally say my ultimate goal has been achieved! There is absolutely no WAY I could have done this without the support and encouragement of my incredible wife, Carol, as well as the support of friends and family along the way. I would not have been able to do this alone, but especially without Carol, who I love with all my heart and without whom I would not have gotten to this point. I am forever grateful sweetie:-) And to all of the wonderful teachers and colleagues I have had along the way, I thank you as well, for you helped me dream the dream and to believe that I could make it happen! With great humility, I look forward to my new career while not losing sight of how so many of you believed in me and encouraged me along the way. Thank you to all!
Congratulations, Kevin!
