Summary
An eclectic and diligent individual with over 20 years of job experience in a variety of fields, including child care both inside and outside of the school setting, construction and warehouse labor, customer service in sales, and the food industry. The last 5 years have been spent exploring my physical and mental strength with a short lived career as a union carpenter and travelling throughout the eastern parts of Australia. During the pandemic I decided to study and achieve my bachelors degree in social sciences. March 2023 after graduation, I moved back to the states to take care of my mother who has dementia.
