Summary
I started out in the workforce as a teenager at a restaurant and learned everything top to bottom. My work journey eventually took me into internships, salons, more restaurants and even retail. I pursued my dreams of starting a business after I had my son and started self employment through Etsy. Life’s journey has taught me a lot about values and even after following my personal dreams, I realize I miss being a part of a team. I am eager to join a team again while still following my inner artist’s dream. I am positive, hardworking, creative, attentive and passionate and I think I can add wonderful attributes to anywhere I may go!
