I grew up farming, learning hard work, endurance, and the ability to keep pushing when things get hard.
In school, I studied marketing, learning why people choose the items and services they purchase, what makes them loyal to a brand, and how to care for your teams and patrons.
As a theater attendant, I learned how to be productive, control an environment, and work in close quarters with others.
Being a line cook taught me more about cleanliness, and many ways to prepare ingredients.
As a service member, I was taught many skills, but a few were. Risk management, communication, critical thinking, safety, small group leadership, integrity, endurance, and sacrifice.
