1.What do you currently do for a living and what is your dream job?
I am currently a server at Gringos which I am very proud of because it provides me with the opportunity to work within a fun and rewarding environment. I have met tons of awesome people throughout my time there and have had many opportunities to network and build relationships whether that is with coworkers or guests. I am also a full time student at Rutgers and studying to become a NASM Personal trainer. My dream job would allow me to engage in meaningful work in an autonomous manner. I am looking forward to becoming a personal trainer because helping people (and myself) reach their fitness goals is what keeps me going. I want to be an independent trainer, working for myself. My goal is to have as many clients as possible while establishing a long lasting relationship. I wish for my clients to see me as their mentor as well.
