~Adventure With A Purpose~ 

I am a tenacious and expressive adventure seeker with an array of experiences in the business field. As someone who has a passion for outdoor activities (snowboarding, scuba diving, hiking, surfing, camping, soccer, and running), I have always embodied an active lifestyle and would love to translate this into a role where I can empower others to do the same. 

I am continuously intrigued by consumer behavior, company branding, and strategy - and would love to work for a company where I can leverage these skills. 

If you feel I could be an asset to your team please do not hesitate to contact me at klinegillian@gmail.com. I look forward to discussing a role with a company who shares the same passion for an adventurous and active lifestyle as I do!
