Summary
Born in New York to parents from Mali and Mauritania, and having lived in several U.S. states, I offer a rich and varied background. My career began with organizing receipts and has evolved to encompass roles in retail, warehouse management, horticulture, and entrepreneurial endeavors. As the oldest of twelve, I naturally developed leadership skills. My experience includes managing a jewelry shop, launching a handyman business, and co-founding a moving company. I've consistently excelled in sales and customer service, demonstrating a strong work ethic across all roles. Now in Texas, I’m driving for Uber and exploring new opportunities in sales and business.
