While happy to share my resume with all the standard work history and such, I want to use this space to elaborate on more of my unique background and experiences.
On the surface, I'm a friendly extrovert. I tend to befriend a lot of introverts and make their life exciting. I could say I'm unique, but let's face it, I'm a little weird. Often times the outlier and the entertainer of the group, I like to label myself a "boat rocker". (I said boat rocker, not boat wrecker.) That might sound a little scary, but sometimes you need that movement to get somewhere. Growth comes from discomfort and I enjoy fostering that growth.
I believe change for the sake of change is as wasteful as tradition for the sake of tradition. However, I also believe that we should always be looking for opportunities for improvement. At the forefront of all progress is communication. The only way to know what someone wants to say is to have them say it. When people communicate, good things happen!

Going a bit more into my background...
I love to travel and have gotten to do so a lot while growing up. I've lived in 10 states and have visited 44 (and counting).

I believe much of my worldview grew from my travels as I have met many different people and experienced a wide variety of environments.
Some other fun facts about me: I got to pet a wild polar bear in Alaska, I built my own kayak, and I can play 3 instruments.
Lastly, here is a little more detail about my experiences that don't really fit neatly into a resume:
Miscellaneous work not listed as a "job", but I was still paid for: cleaning vacation homes, taking photographs of work sites for an inspection company, teaching music/instrument lessons, band camp sectional instructor, freelance graphic design, and some Door Dash work.
Volunteer work and independent projects: volunteered at several concerts and festivals (including working as a supervisor for volunteers), very involved in many roles in churches since childhood, volunteered at a haunted house, admin/moderator for online communities (managing media, content creation, and event planning), and am an affiliated Twitch streamer.
