I have been fortunate to work in many capacities from the time I was a teenager. These experiences enriched me in many ways, not least gaining skills in time management, attention to detail, collaboration, empathy, customer satisfaction, and plain old hard work. While none have become my career, all made me the person I am today and I am proud to include them in my scope of work.
