Summary
I grew up in St. Johns, Newfoundland, Canada. I lived there until age 9, when my family and I moved to Scotts Valley, California. I went to Vine Hill elementary, Scotts Valley Middle School, and Scotts Valley High School. I have been working at Roaring Camp Railroads since June 2021, first as a ticket agent and now as a member of the catering staff. I am now looking to apply for scholarships in hopes of making my lifestyle a career. I plan on attending WyoTech, for their automotive program. I was always told that if you love what you do, you don't work a day in your life. I think that a career in automotive will give me just that.
