Fun Fact

I have been working since I was twelve years old! My first job was as a babysitter and as a counselor in training. When I turned fourteen the camp hired me on part time during the school year and full time in the summer! I haven't been without a job since then.

Passion

I want to be the best version of myself and that only happens when you open yourself up to new people and new opportunities. I want to keep working and learning new things as long as I possibly can.
