Zeke Ivy,  Hearing Officer at California Department of Health Care Services, grew up in a loving two-parent house hold with and older and younger brother in San Jose. Both parents were professionals who set positive examples for him. He was very interested in becoming a salesman like his father. He earned a business degree from Florida A & M. After graduating he sold financial products at a firm where he won numerous sales awards. However, his sales success came to a screeching halt during the financial downturn in 2008. As potential clients tightened their belts he had fewer prospects. To maintain his income, he switched from sales to a back-office job at another firm. He did well but missed interacting with people. The California Department of Health Care Services gave him the opportunity to work with people, build relationships and create supportive networks. Although he is not working in his chosen field he enjoys what he is doing. He models the maxim, “Don’t let what you can’t do, keep you from doing what you can do.www.dhcs.ca.govVisit ProDestingCoaching.com, take the quiz and schedule free consultation.
