After finishing the program, I was offered a job at the Early Learning Center to continue similar work with children ranging from ages 3 to 5. Worked through the year there full time, creating heart warming relationships with each student and coworker.
After the school year I chose to explore bartending. I signed up to learn at the Minnesota School of Bartending where I learned to become a certified bartender through the help of many professional trainers.
