He realized his destiny was to get into the pharmaceutical industry while working at the University of Windsor as a Student Placement Officer.

company car, he assured the Sales Manager he would help him in his search. Two weeks later Kevin started his career in the pharmaceutical industry.

"Each golden sunrise ushers in new opportunities for those who retain faith in themselves, and keep their chins up.
No one has ever seen a cock crow with its head down.
Courage to start and willingness to keep everlasting at it are the requisites for success.
Meet the sunrise with confidence.
Fill every golden minute with right thinking and worthwhile endeavor.
Do this and there will be joy for you in each golden sunset."

"The task of securing intellectual capital changes a firm's measurement processes. Traditional measures of success, focused on economic capital (for example, profitability or financial performance), must now be coupled with measures of intellectual capital. Seeking, finding, and using such measures will be among the primary challenges of the future".
