Work History

  • I established a firewood-selling business. Starting from the ground up. I pursued an on-the-side supplemental income idea, that eventually became a full-time venture.
  • Implemented successful business strategies to increase revenue and target new markets.
  • Designed organizational structures for efficient operations management.
  • Oversaw daily operations, ensuring efficiency and effectiveness in all processes.
  • Completed day-to-day duties accurately and efficiently.
  • I saw the opportunity to make more money with firewood sales than I would have with my previous job, but in order to do so, I would have to devote all my time and energy to it. I essentially sold firewood from my house, which I sawed, split, stacked, and bundled, which was very time-consuming yet rewarding financially, physically, and mentally. It taught me or enhanced my knowledge of sales, social skills, marketing, and owning a business.
