I grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana. I was one of eight children, did not have a "privileged" upbringing, but am extremely grateful for my parents' many sacrifices. They instilled in me a work ethic that I carry with me to this day.br br Throughout my years, I have overcome many personal and professional challenges. I now devote my professional life to helping clients overcome their financial challenges.br br When you meet me, you will find me to be professional but personable. I try to live my life like an exclamation, not an explanation! I believe that I am brave and willing to take informed risks. I am committed to constant self-improvement, always using my time as wisely as possible.br br I look forward to the opportunity to serve you!br br Donald E. Hoodbr The Law Office of Donald E.
