About
I'm a business student at UNC Wilmington (graduating May 2029) with real-world experience in both retail and running my own business. I spent two years at Golf Galaxy helping customers, handling transactions, and keeping things running smoothly on the floor. Before that, I built a lawn care business from the ground up in high school, managing over 50 clients on my own — which taught me a lot about responsibility, communication, and just getting things done.
I'm a hard worker who picks up new skills quickly, works well with others, and I'm always looking to grow. I'm also OSHA 10 certified.
