Seize the bidet! Carpe Rectum! I know two things with absolute certainty and bidets are the other one. I'll work harder than a 20 psi bidet in a truck stop Taco Bell. Let's do it Tushy.

Founder
Bidet-it-Forward
Chicag, IL
06.2014 - Current
This is less a company and more of a movement. Spreading the cheek wetting gospel to friends, family, and hundreds of others to buy a bidet and then pay it forward to someone they love. I started Bidet-it-Forward out of pure selfishness so that I could go to any friend's house and not have to worry about dumping like a common animal.

International Student Coordinator

Current - 09.2016
Look..... Bills need paid, kid needs fed, wife needs knockoff Hermes bags, and I need to be insured due to an abundance of clumsiness. This is what I do so I can do things. Related to Marketing? Yeah. I work with thousands of international students that rely on me to be a caring human. I write proposals, social media content, an ungodly amount of emails and everything relies on accuracy and attention to detail. Ever tried selling Chicago as a destination to someone from southern Italy?

If you take nothing away from this resume, remember this. I have 1000% certainty that I was the only person in a town of 10,000 people with a bidet. Hoping you want full disclosure and if you're still reading, maybe I have a shot? I survived living in Tiffin, Ohio for 4 years so that has to count for something.

Telling jokes, slinging drinks, dealing with the riff-raff, degenerates, poets, schemers and dreamers.
I just spent a few minutes trying to remember the names of all the bars I've tended and people I've met along the way. I could list them but you've got a lot to do.
Anyone that has service or bar experience are God's favorite animals.
