  • Description

    I come from the business world but realize that money and greed is ruining the world. I'm looking to learn and help in the area of holistic medicine or self sustaining farming or something similiar. While helping, I would like to be emerged into the culture and improve my beginner Spanish language skills and my beginner Salsa dance skills or my beginner farming skills.

    I have had many different jobs in my life including working on a regenerative farm, restaurant worker, casino dealer, English teacher and tax and financial advisor, to name a few.

    I am not handy but that doesn't mean I won't get my hands dirty. I am also dependable and if I say I'm going to do a job then the job usually gets done.

    I'm also laid back, energetic, enthusiastic and always willing to listen and learn while going out of my way to help others while I try to learn something new in the process.

  • More details about your skills

    I graduated with an Economics degree, worked two years in the corporate world and left to become an actor in Hollywood. I went broke and ended up being a blackjack dealer in New Orleans and waiting tables on the famous Bourbon Street. After two years of doing that, I moved to South Korea to become an English teacher. When I came home I created my own companies and re-entered the business world and worked as an Investment Advisor and a tax return preparer for the past 15 years. All while working to build my clients, I had about 25 part time jobs over the years ranging from, kitchen dishwasher, UPS truck loader, Bartender, animal processor, farmer, transporter, insurance salesman, the list goes on and on. I cannot do construction but I can do anything if someone explains it to me.
