About Me

I am in Salem, Oregon. I was a college student until 2020, and graduated with a Hospitality and Tourism Management Degree. I had every intention of graduating in May of 2020 and moving to Maui to work at one of the resorts. But, then COVID-19 happened, and the bottom fell out of the tourism industry, especially in Hawaii.

So, I decided to start an eBay business instead, to try and help people who were homebound during the pandemic and couldn't get supplies. I started my eBay store where I sell mostly over the counter items, diabetic supplies, Tylenol, laxatives, etc. With always free shipping, and bundle deals to save people money. I am still doing it, and it is definitely a lot of work.

With my wife having a seizure disorder, I am always worried that if I leave home to get a full-time position then she could have a seizure and die. Having very flexible work that allows me to start and stop whenever I need is so great for my unique situation.
