I was born and raised in sunny California. However, I am not from its beautiful and opportunistic part. I was raised in the “farmlands,” as we grew up calling it, in the central part of California. Out there, people are born and raised to be farmers and take over the family business. I had different aspirations. Fortunately, I had a bunch of family living in Las Vegas. So, sixteen-year-old me packed up and moved here in hopes of surrounding myself with opportunity. Sure enough, I found exactly what I was hoping for. I finished up high school and headed north to the University of Nevada, Reno (Go Wolfpack!) to pursue a business degree with a focus in marketing.
Once I experienced working in retail, I saw clearly what it took to run a business and how essential marketing is to success. Marketing is an ever-changing industry. In this profession, we are constantly challenged to increase our levels of creativity and to rethink old ideas. I love having to prove myself daily. After graduation, I was given the opportunity to apply my marketing knowledge here at Quillin as an Assistant Account Executive. I feel right at home with this group of dedicated experts working in such a welcoming culture. I can’t imagine a better starting point for my career in assisting businesses succeed through strategic marketing.
Now all I need is a golden retriever and I’ll have my dream life.
