My career path has been a journey filled with turns and transitions. I became a publicist in the entertainment industry before I turned 21, running national and international campaigns. Funnily, I remember not being able to enter 21+ events for projects I worked so hard promoting. I also taught music to elementary and middle school students. Now, I manage food operations at the executive chef level for an independent boutique hotel with a variety of internal outlets.I realize that I’ve always gravitated towards careers in which I am helping others grow, something that I take very seriously. Managing mindfully and emphasizing the importance of mentorship is something I think about and practice daily. Art has also been a recurring theme in my life. As a musician, painter, potter, and chef, I take the craft seriously. I hope to create a network of like-minded folks whose mission is to develop a culture that uplifts, empowers, and reform a broken system.
