The chat was moderated by BlackEnterprise.com and hosted by Black Enterprise Senior Editor of Small Business, Carolyn Brown. During the dynamic chat, Nettles and Brown discussed how one can effectively carve a path and follow their career goals.

The army vet also advised taking the time to research the industry an individual is seeking a career in, and to prepare by reading books or having a mentor.
