My bonsai tree is blossoming
Most of my jobs have come about because someone I knew and cared about needed help. This has led to a very zigzag career:
• barista and manager of volunteers
• music & jewellery-making tutor to disabled adults
• admin & fundraiser for hospital chaplains
• medical manager
• game dev managing director
• barista and manager of volunteers
• music & jewellery-making tutor to disabled adults
• admin & fundraiser for hospital chaplains
• medical manager
• game dev managing director
