Grace Neilsen

Portland

Summary

I have had the opportunity to work in many different and interesting job industries. I love working with people, clothes, food, and anything creative. I’m a dog groomer full time, but I’m looking for a part time job to fill some gaps in my days.

One thing I’m really proud of was being able to maintain three jobs as well as apprentice to become a dog groomer during the pandemic. With that privilege I was able to built my savings and career enough to move to Portland. I pride myself in my work ethic and I enjoy working!
