💼 Past Experience

In 2008, I left college to start my own custom apparel company. It was a really fireable moment- I Imaging wearing clothes I made myself and not someone else's. I quickly built a following on social media and in my dorm room, and began to mentor other students in the business. I also formed a blog and started to work on bigger projects.In 2012, I got a chance to work for a university in Orlando FL as a student manager. This was a really great opportunity to learn about the business and see what it was like on the ground. I also got to help manage student athletes and help operate the school's facilities.In 2013, I left the university to do my own thing and start my own company. I was so excited to be starting my own company! I had a lot of experience with uniforms and socks, so I was basically ready to start production. The only thing I didn't have was a company name. I started thinking about Rock ’Em Socks, and I liked the sound.I started creating designs and began to market my company. I partnered with a number of entities and released my first socks in conjunction with a championship team. It was a really unique experience and I learned a lot about the business.In 2016, I started working for University of Central Florida Men's Basketball as a student manager. Here, I am responsible for on court and in the classroom operations, as well as player personnel assistance. It's a great opportunity to work with athletes and help manage their time and energy.I really enjoy working with sock companies, and I believe that Rock 'Em Socks isthe best brand out there. I love the uniqueness of their socks and thefact that they focus on creating something different. I am excited to see where the company goes next and see what new products they can produce.
