On my days off, I enjoy shopping, doing anything water related in the summer, reading, being with friends and family, and some days just relaxing and doing nothing! I also clean a lot, it is such a release for me and tames my OCD and anxiety. I try to stay active because I have an auto-immune disease, so I try to walk two to three miles daily to prevent ending up in a wheelchair. I am a cancer survivor and in complete remission as of August 2023. Unfortunately, the chemotherapy (I had 48 doses) caused me to have seizurestherefore my "running around" has slowed down due to multiple seizures a week and not being able to drive or be alone. These are some of the reasons a remote job would be perfect for me! I am currently enrolled to receive my MBA. I try to start everyday by making my bed, that way if I have a horrible day whether it's personal or due to my chronic illness, at the end of the day I always have a made bed to get into. Thank you for taking the time to read and learn about me!
