About Me

I'm interested in art, music, writing, fashion, beauty, makeup, food, cooking, health, fitness, social justice, feminism, and making coffee, and tea. I love to work as a barista for my start. I have been unemployed for a long time. I never had a job before. I came from a small town called Rocky Mount, NC, where I was born and raised in. I high school, I took a program called the "Occupational Course of Study", a program where disabled student are required to learn about the workforce and are taught work ethic. We take to bus outside of school hours to different workplaces to learn about our jobs. I loved the experience, because I get to go outside of school and learn about work ethic.

Ideal Workplace Values

I like my workplace to be pro-diversity, pro-neurodiversity, anti-racist, and treat their workers very well. I do like to move around, but I need longer breaks to sit down, and I don't mind a bit of noise. My ideal job is to give me paid off days. and I need at least a week off.
