Interests

Since graduating high school I have been pursuing film acting It's a marathon not a race so I've had my fair share of different day jobs from working on a framing crew to being a barista, but I've spent the majority of my time serving/bartending I enjoy engaging with customers and creating an environment they want to come back to My goal is to become a fulltime working actor but I wouldn't be able to do it without the restaurant business
