Summary

Hello, I’m a 23 year old with an associates degree in studio arts from Front Range Community College and a Bachelor’s degree in arts from CUBoulder with a minor in business. Throughout my years in college I have challenged myself to try new things with my future career, and I love to do the same thing with my jobs. In my prior years to college, I volunteered at a humane society and helped out my parents with their business named Nomadic Import Traders, but nothing else compares to my passion for cooking/baking. I’m well versed in the food service business as I have been working restaurant/kitchen jobs for 4 years. Since I started my first job in a kitchen I started learning all new types of cooking- which herbs to put together, how to properly work with meat, how prepping one food can have a multitude of different flavors, etc. Now, my passion has changed and is going down the more artistic route to utilize my degree. My long term goal is to become a tattoo artist and be able to make my own business out of that career. As I'm developing my career, I am now a Tattoo Apprentice.
