Education

Branson High School

2018 – Present

Throughout High School, I’ve taken classes such as Web Design, Graphic Design, App Design, Journalism and Computer Apps. I’ve always been somewhat of a leader in these classes because I would help other students struggling on technical tasks when they were stuck.

The GOCAPS Program

Fall 2020 – Summer 2021

GOCAPS is a program I took during my Junior year of High School. It stands for Greater Ozarks Centers for Advanced Professional Studies. It’s a bit like VOTECH but for students who are interested in business or medical careers.

Missouri State University

Fall 2021 – Winter 2022

I haven’t decided if I want to go back to university or not yet.

Work

Ralph Lauren – Associate

February 2020 – October 2020

While working at my first job, Ralph Lauren, I learned an incredible amount about customer service and working with other people. This experience also helped me to develop into a better leader through often times placing me in a supervisory role.

American Outlet – Subcontractor

November 2021 – Present

American Outlet is a Poland based company that sources clothing from various outlet stores in the U.S. such as Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger and resells them in Europe. My role in the company is to source clothing from these stores, scan them into inventory, and package them for shipping to Poland.

This experience introduced me to the world of logistics through the founder of the company mentoring me on how he manages the books on a large scale operation such as this. The experience also gave me vast amount of responsibility to spend the companies money well by sourcing proper items and by allowing me to work on my own schedule. It has also opened up opportunites to travel around the U.S. to source products.

Online Arbitrage/eBay

2018 – Present

My digital design and marketing experience started at about 14 with building a store on eBay where I sold gaming pc’s that I built. This required me to do marketing such as using good pictures in listings, writing insightful item descriptions, and finding a balance in promoting listings. Throughout the years, the eBay store has gone from mostly electronics to mostly designer clothing and other various items I find for good deals. This experience has helped me tremendously in improving at customer service because on eBay, as a ‘rule’, the customer will win 99% of the time in disputes so it’s essential that they are happy with their purchase.

Corwin Ford – Sales Representative

Fall 2021 – Winter 2021

Corwin Ford was my first real sales job and I absolutely loved many aspects of it. I really enjoyed building customer relationships, driving the cars, and closing the sales. This job helped me discover my love of sales and helped train me to become a great salesman. I left Corwin Ford at the beginning of January because I wanted to try my luck with enrolling back into college and the job just took way too much of my time at around 65hrs/wk.
