Accomplishments
- I have been given numerous acknowledgements from fellow coworkers, supervisors, and managers on my ability to work, communicate and collaborate with others efficiently and amicably. This extends to assisting guests in the store with locating merchandise or other tasks while exercising patience and diligence in customer satisfaction.
- On a few occasions, the above has earned me what we call at TJmaxx, "Reach Cards". Reach Cards are awarded to employees who go the extra mile to perform a task with the utmost diligence or who help out their fellow coworkers.

Reading and writing are among my favorite things to do in my spare time. I consider myself an amateur writer with aspirations toward one day getting published.
I am also a music enthusiast who primarily enjoys anything rock and metal, but I also enjoy folk, jazz, and anything else I come across during my musical adventurers. I'm a practicing guitarist also.
Tabletopping, painting, and playing video games are some of my others hobbies.
