I enjoy working with customers and putting a smile on people's faces. The reason I am looking for a job is to help get my dad and I our own place. My favorite part of working is being productive, as opposed to sitting down with nothing to do. I have quite a lot of positive energy, which I love to share with people who seem to need it. I enjoy cleaning, but I would prefer working in customer service. As a kid, I enjoyed baking and found Mixing things very fun. I have a lot of patience and never lose my cool, making it easy to work with cranky and silly people. Having worked for family and businesses since I was 6, I developed amazing social skills and work ethic. I am very creative and find ways to improve a lot of what's around me. I can also sing.

hobbies
Some of my hobbies include; writing stories, cleaning, cooking, and playing videogames occasionally. Though my favorite thing to do is talk to people. I always try to be friendly and remember the little things about people. I believe everybody should be special to someone and I just want to make everybody feel the affect of being remembered.
