I started out working production for a speaker company when I was 19 years old. I did small jobs at first, then learned how to wind coils. I wanted to learn more, so I moved up to the office. I filed, typed some, answered phones. The company went under. The next few years I worked as a server, and did some house cleaning with my mother. The speaker company opened back up, so I went back. I learned how to build the speakers from scratch, and then became manufacturing supervisor. The company went under again. I then went and worked for another company who needed my knowledge on building speakers. I showed them how to purchase what they needed. I found the building, and set everything up myself. When I showed them everything, I was let go. I had been cleaning houses for a couple of day a week for a company, and was offered the managers position. I did that job for almost 6 years.

I have worked my way up in every job I have had. I started from bottom at the speaker company and eventually learned everything about the speaker world. I started the speaker company back up by myself for someone who knew nothing about how to do this. I was offered the managing job at the house cleaning company because I advised the owner of things she needed to do. I have learned to be very good at customer service over the years, and I never thought I could do that.
