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.
