Adam HigdonLifetime Student
Adam Higdon graduated from North Park University
and Theological Seminary in his native Chicago in
1998, and right away entered the workforce. But
he has never stopped learning he has committed
to improving himself in order to increase his
marketability and to be a more fully rounded
person. He graduated Cum Laude with a degree in
Psychology from North Park and began working as
an Internet Sales Supervisor at Grainger. During
his five years there he helped to turn the
company's website into a profit engine, moving
from one million dollars in sales in 1999 to one
hundred million dollars by the time he left in
2004.
That enormous jump coincided with the growth of
E-business and E-commerce, which Adam Higdon
began studying at the University of Illinois
Chicago's Liautaud Graduate School of Business in
2001. He holds a certificate in International
E-Business and E-Commerce.

he has achieved, there are many more who have had
to settle for less, and have maybe even slipped
through the cracks, in spite of their own hard
work.
