Work Experience

- Little Colorado Summer 2010
Design Internship

I worked in close collaboration with all members of the leadership staff at this children's furniture manufactory in Denver. Over the course of my 150 hours I learned about every aspect of the business, from working in assembly on the production floor, to researching and implementing design solutions that would bring products and instructions into compliance with new CPSIA and ASTM requirements for juvenile products.

Forklift Operator

This fast paced industry required machinery operators to be extremely organized while working rapidly and efficiently; moving tons of highly time sensitive materials through the warehouse and loading them into tractor trailers daily.

- Global Network Systems 2004-06

Working as an independent contractor required a great degree of self direction, and self sufficiency, to maintain all the various aspects of the business. Necessary skills included; sales and installation of communication products, designing and developing promotional materials, negotiating contracts, inventory control, billing, collections, and accounting for time and expenses.

- Dish Network 2001-04
