I love building, whether its my store or physically with my hands.

I recently built my own online health and wellness store, while at the moment it is still a work in progress it is something that I am passionate about. For most of my school career I have been building sets for various plays, welded various sculptures and built many other different structures and is another passion of mine. Going out of college I have cleaned and fixed up houses for family friends.
