My career wasn't built along a straight line. It was built through work, travel, and learning to solve the problem in front of me.
I began working as a teenager in Brooklyn, New York, delivering groceries for a neighborhood market. That first job taught me the value of being dependable. I went on to repair and support computers, maintain residential properties, help run a gymnastics center, and work in retail and customer service.
Work also took me outside New York. I spent time in Redding, California, working in retail; Everett, Washington, doing landscaping; Springfield, Massachusetts, back in retail; and Wichita Falls, Texas, in customer support. Moving between places and jobs meant adapting quickly, dealing with unfamiliar situations, and learning by doing.
Back in New York, I operated a small cleaning and property-services business and took on independent moving, maintenance, and technical-support work. Those experiences gave me an understanding of what it takes to organize the work—not just complete the task.
Over the past decade, I specialized in wholesale women's apparel operations and logistics: managing product and customer information, processing orders, allocating inventory, following retailer requirements, coordinating warehouses and shipments, and completing invoices. Today, I bring that practical background to new challenges while continuing to explore technology and learn new skills.
