I have a long background in skateboarding - had a little shop in the back of my mom&#39;s pet store in the 90s, worked in a shop in my early 20s, did sales for Deluxe, and worked on brand marketing and as the team manager for adidas skateboarding. I&#39;ve also helped build skateparks, organized local events, advocate for skateparks, and volunteer for Skate Like A Girl. I&#39;ve been snowboarding since the early 90s (remember when you just drilled your bindings into your board?!). And these days I&#39;m an avid cyclist. It&#39;s a great way to get around town and keep my legs working for other fun activities.With work, I&#39;ve done sales and marketing, dialed in some great customer service while working behind a bar, and I&#39;ve done the freelance hustle with photography. I know my sweet spot for a new position will be heavy on people interactions- customer service, community building, networking, etc.. I&#39;m organized, love staying busy, and thrive in a dynamic work environment where things might not be the same every day. Maybe this sounds like a good fit?
