I have extensive experience in Pop Culture Collectibles, such as toys, comics and movie posters. I had a store front located in downtown Winchester, Ky. I bought, sold, and traded collectibles of all kinds at the store, on-line, and at conventions throughout the year. During that time I shipped items all over the world.

Winchester, Ky.

My family owned several rental properties in the Winchester, Kentucky area. Throughout that time I was often called upon to fix any problems with the homes. Winchester has a fairly significant drug problem, which leads to a very high turn over rate in renters, and a substantial amount of damage as a result. This means that I frequently had to resolve many issues in a fairly short amount of time. Typically the work involved painting, refinishing floors, removing carpet, repairing holes, plastering walls and ceilings, rewiring outlets, light plumbing, replacing doors, lights, fans, sinks toilets, cabinets, really anything that could be removed from a house.

Simply put, I sculpted breasts for 3 years.Radiant Impressions was involved in "Non-Surgical Breast Reconstruction." The facility produced custom fit breast prosthetics for mastectomy patients.As head sculptor I was responsible for the actual sculpting, the training and supervision of other sculptors, and the final inspection of the product before it left the factory. The molding, and manufacture of the prosthetic itself was handled by other employee's.The sculptors job entails the use of clay, castings of the patient, various measuring and mold making techniques to create a completely custom breast form for each individual. The job demanded an extremely high level of spatial orientation, visual acuity, and problem solving skills. The final form had to not only fit perfectly, and comfortably, but also match the shape and symmetry of the remaining breast. To accomplish this task it is necessary to be fast, but methodical, a good eye for detail is a must, and occasionally one simply had to make a best guess. Personally tasked with the sculpting of a non-custom breast prosthetic line. This line included a full ranges of sizes and styles to accommodate the requirements of various problems. In my final months with the company the plant was relocated from Kentucky to Michigan. I was tasked with the training of a completely new crew of sculptors to make the transition.

Assisted customers in the automotive department and surrounding areas, including sporting goods, furniture, hardware, and toys. Also regularly stocked and zoned the same area's. In hardware a primary job had to color match paint. Often the computer used in this function would fail and the job had to be done by eye. This required an extraordinarily good understanding of color.I was often tasked to personally assist managers during various projects throughout the store. These included everything from setting up or breaking down holiday displays, to inventory. During my intentionally short time with Walmart I was offered several promotions. However I turned them down since I was actively seeking other employment.
