He began his educational career as a high school social studies teacher. He is the author of the book, Cardboard Confessionals, released in 2018.
Since writing his book, Mr. Reed has also delivered his message of support and encouragement as a motivational speaker. He has spoken to various groups such as schools, businesses, health care, agriculture, and the armed forces.
Thanks for taking time to share with us Mitch!
