United States of America

For nearly a decade, I've been pounding the dirt and floors of Manufacturing Plants and Distribution Centers around the Southeast US. During that time, I've accomplished many a great things and seen many various roles in the pursuit of my next challenge. From assembly, Welding, and Fabrication to Line and Team Supervision, I've stretched myself tirelessly in all grounds and bases of the industry. I've come to the conclusion, after my last position as a warehouse associate at Imperial Supplies, that my true passion and interests lay within that of writing. Since the age of ten, I've pursued that avenue as merely an interest and hobby. I've created short stories, poems, speeches and movie scripts for pure enjoyment and now wish to make it a career. At this point, I'm a little nervous about pursuing that field as that would mean I'd have to start from the bottom. But, like any challenge, its a climb I'm willing to make to finally pursue the career I wish to attain. If anyone is of interest in helping me attain those goals or offer me an opportunity to provide such, it'll not go unnoticed and I will give my full 100% full effort and participation.

Gender Neutral: Fluidity and Hope

The world needs to know this, right now, this very second. I am a Human Being. A person with a brain, emotional contrasts, and genitals. Whether it's important to annotate that is beside the point.
