Milestones
My road in life has taken me all over.
First I tried management in the entertainment industry. Then I when to marketing in the industry.
When the recession hit, I went to my trade which was in the medical field, stayed there for 2 years.
Then I went to marketing for small businesses. That was okay, but I found that I desired more.
So I then went to helping aspiring entrepreneurs start their own business.
Currently still doing that, even facilitated a workshop on it. Kinda became interested in travel.
So I became a licensed travel agent to sell travel. This is a full time career for some, but not me.
Fashion is a passion so I launched my own style company where I provide style services.
I am also currently writing a book on how to start a business to establish myself as an expert.
