Working for an entrepreneurial company has been an amazing experience. Our environment has felt like a roller coaster ride for almost 5 years with
developing gift items and stationary for mass retailers such as Target,
Wal*Mart, Things Remembered, Office Max, Office Depot and various second
tier retailers nation wide. Since I am a thrill seeker, its been a great
ride with traveling abroad to the Far East to source items and build a successful product for the masses. I own and still wear many hats.
