An entrepreneurial project to develop a cannabis industry website, where visitors can learn about the latest canna-tech and earn points/ rewards for participation! I organized my team of content creators, web developers, designers, and marketers. We worked on small, local, fundraising events. I worked on locating investors and even travelled down to the Cannabis Business Expo 2014, which was held in Las Vegas for 3 days, to discuss business opportunities with individuals in the industry!

DreamWeaver Creative is a creative partnership between myself and Sonja Violette. We work on a variety of projects including video games, web design, film, and music. I performed backup vocals on the latest CD for Sonja's band, Ca$h Cat, and she and I collaborated on a 4ft x 4ft canvas oil painting, which sold for $4,000 in a local gallery.

I was one of the top 3 sales representatives for Cymax, handled large business-to-business orders, and worked with SalesForce.

During winter of 2011, I juggled a full-time key holder position with Crabtree & Evelyn, as well as a part-time sales associate position with Hickory Farms. I was responsible for helping customers find the right products for their needs, handling the cash register, setting up promotional material, and assisted the store in building a solid base of repeat customers by earning loyalty from the people I assisted.

Two Roads manages all of the Spirit Halloween, Hickory Farm, and Calendar Club seasonal outlets. I was the cashier supervisor at Spirit Halloween, where (from August to November) I ensured our register discrepancy only had a loss of $18.00 and our store was #1 in Children's Hospital donations.
