Work History

Artist

08.2020 - Current
  • Since 2020 I have done traditional and digital art commissions where people request a certain piece and we negotiate the price and timeframe. I have offered commissions since I started my art account and started off only doing digital but now I do an equal amount digital and traditional. This job allows me flexibility with my time, while also working with a strict timeline. Through this job, I have developed cash handling skills, customer service skills, and navigated selling my work online using Etsy. I also learned how to price my art and be professional online when asking for payment and dealing with requested changes.
  • Designed custom artwork for clients, meeting their creative vision and ensuring satisfaction with the final product.
  • Utilized social media platforms proactively to promote personal brand awareness while engaging with potential clients or collaborators regularly.
  • Sold original art pieces through online platforms, gallery exhibitions, and direct customer interactions, generating consistent revenue streams while maintaining an active artist presence within the community.

Pet Sitter/Dog Walker

10.2019 - 04.2024
  • I have been a pet sitter for many clients, going to their house twice a day to feed and spend time with their pets.
  • Prepared food and water following the given instructions for each animal daily or twice a day as requested.
  • Built time management skills and people skills as well as helping me learn responsibility and confidentiality as I was often checking up on the house as well as the animals.
  • Exercised animals regularly with walks and rigorous play activities every day.
  • Gave animals proper attention to promote secure environment in owner's absence.
