RESUME
Since the age of 12, I have yet to earn $100 that I do not appreciate. From babysitting, custodial engineering, food & beverage, events, and marketing, my career has traversed across the United States and abroad. I hope to be creatively honest, yet provocative in my approach that inspires an insatiable desire to learn more about me.
