Summary

Over the years I've worked a variety of jobs, and have learned many different lessons and gained a lot of wisdom. From working construction/demo to all different kinds of film gigs, to running a coffee stand and even doing snow removal in harsh environments. I've gained valuable experience from each job and am now looking for something more consistent and long-term.
