At the young age of 16, I took my first real job as a badge checker on the beaches of Manasquan, NJ. Nothing prepares you better for sales than asking people to pay to go on a beach in a state where they pay a ton of taxes.

Swiftly after I realized sitting and doing nothing on the beach all day was not for me, I took my passion for fashion to retail and worked there for five years. While the normal tasks of someone in retail are working the register and cleaning, I typically ignored those duties to dress and accessorize the mannequins all around the store. I call that being a go-getter. My boss may have told you differently.

This write up is as swift as my time there. I came, I heard, and I left... It disrupted my social life too much and calling people about politics just to get an earful was not my cup of tea.

Fresh out of college, I took a role that any recent grad would dream of: working at spring break and college campuses around the country. After ten plus years I got to work with almost every major CPG brand you can think of, and learned the true meaning of hard work and my passion for the marketing/advertising space.

Spitball was the exact opportunity I was looking for, joining not only a full service agency touching all points in the advertising and marketing world, but working with a team who are just as passionate about their work as I am. The level of teamwork is like nothing I've ever experienced before.
