résumé
Personal ​
info​​
I originally trained to be a matte painter, but life had other plans—I ended up traveling and jumping into all kinds of unexpected projects I had absolutely no experience with at the start. Those adventures taught me how to learn quickly, adapt under pressure, and enjoy the process along the way. I still love all things creative, and I’ve found a lot of joy in combining that creativity with meeting people from all over the world and sharing my skills and passion with them.

Lasting Impressions Wilderness Camp

Kadoma, Zimbabwe
Went as the assistant to the co-directors of the camp. Was in charge of managing camp staff, supply runs, greeting & hosting guests, accounting & creating new brochures, instructor manuals, website and other graphics used at the camp. In addition to all of this I learned to 'make a plan' in day to day struggles like no electricity or water. It was a learning experience to say the least but I loved EVERY SINGLE MINUTE. I lived with monkeys, baboons & the biggest bugs you've ever seen.
