Summary

I am a December Capricorn, born and raised in fast-paced Los Angeles. I started working right out of school, so I’ve been working in retail for about 10 years now. My favorite part about it is getting excited with customers about products and routines! I am looking for a career with plenty of opportunity for growth and collaboration.
