Kenan Delkic  My cultural diet practices include coaching youth kids in wrestling as-well as working. Coaching kids in the sport that opened up so many doors for me and allowed me to wrestle in college in Missouri and the sport that made me into the caring and honest person I am today. Coaching these kids is a goof feeling just seeing how they progress over time and being able to watch them succeed on and off is a good feeling especially knowing that I am making a positive impact in their lives. Working is huge I love going to work because I always learn something new everyday. My drive and passion is what makes me love going into work everyday and seeing smiles on customers faces. Work is so beneficial in everyday life you build amazing life skills that are going to benefit you, whatever job I do I always try to gain something new out of it.
