Summary

I spent most of my time at Panera as a Trainer and Bakery Training Specialist. In the role of the BTS I did baker evaluations, scheduling, learning and teaching new recipes to bakers and management, teaching bakers/baker trainers over a six to eight week curriculum, maintained all the bakery equipment.

Following my Father's heart problems I moved in to become a full time caregiver. I dealt with lot's of different medical/insurance paperwork and issues. I also took care of eventually all his needs.

Gaming History

I have been an active gamer my whole life. I have played many different styles of games. I have a some experience with consoles with most of my gaming being on PC. I am familiar and proficient with Steam, Epic, Discord, Twitch, YouTube Gaming. I don't know Kick but from what I understand it's not very kid friendly. I regularly read articles about many different games outside my personal likes. I feel I am pretty up to date about most things within the world of gaming. I have built and updated both hardware and software on my personal PC over the years. I feel confident I could figure out most potential PC problems. Even with a limited amount of knowledge of consoles I feel I could figure out most issues with those also. I have used the internet to research many technical problems. In this time most things can be found online in some form. I took care of elderly parents that needed password and account help regularly. I'd like to think I have learned patience in repeating the same information to people repeatably. I am a believer in inclusivity in games. I think games are a great way to bridge all the divides we currently have. I have seen people who wouldn't probably give each other the time of day in person, become bonded over the love of a gaming. I also believe all games are a great teacher of critical thinking. Every game is about figuring something out.
