Life Experiences

The Flame Broiler

     Between March 2009 and March 2012, I held down my first real job working as a cashier at The Flame Broiler. It was here that I learned how to talk with customers and interact with my coworkers. I learned a lot of people skills on both ends. With my coworkers, I had to communicate to make sure the orders came through correctly and in a reasonable amount of time. I learned to communicate with my boss about things the store needed, customers that were asking for him, and other inquiries that required my boss’s attention. I also became skilled at speaking with customers and putting smiles on their faces by getting their order to them quickly and making small talk. I was happy I was able to stay with this company for a long time, and my boss always complimented me in that for the entire time I was there, he never had any problems arise with me. I was proud to be able to say that I worked efficiently at my job and got along with everyone I encountered.


Fashion Modeling

     Since the beginning of 2012, I have done modeling work both in fashion shows and photo shoots. I have modeled in 4 Japanese fashion shows showcasing various street fashions, working with the brands Baby, the Stars Shine Bright, Kapibara-san, and Miss Angela Che. I have also modeled in 3 Japanese street fashion and 1 glamour professional photo shoots, one of these being for the store I interned at, Fairytale Boutique, and working with local photographers such as LAPhotoNet, Mike Cabusi, and Zekie Cho.
