"Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience." ~ Paulo Coelho
I pride myself on my professional work experience's collection of many different types of employment. I have worked directly with clients dealing with mental disabilities, I have cast background extras for a local film distributed by Miramax Films, I have trained people in using Mac computers and Apple software so that they can get the most out of their user experience, and I have been lucky enough to have done even more. Here is a list of recent jobs I have excelled at and the responsibilities I performed during my time there.
