First Job

A week after I turned 10 (allowable age), I started a paper route delivering every weekday afternoon and Saturday morning. As soon as I could legally get a real job at 14, I started working at a car wash. By 15 I was a shift manager responsible for my coworkers, counting the money, and locking up.

Outside of Work…

The last few years, I have been working in a controller role and operating my own tax practice, so I haven’t been able to do much else. When time allows, I enjoy cooking, traveling, and thinking about how I’m going to get back in to shape sometime someday.
