My skills

In case your wondering about my skills and/or job experience it is this. From 2011 through 2012 I worked for a property management company which taught me sales skills which I hope I can use in a retail job even if they are completely different industries. After that I applied and applied at various places throughout the years and I still do. In January 2014 I joined my school's newspaper staff as a staff writer/photographer. It was only for the semester and even though it may not be considered a job I took it seriously. I would write 2 articles for each issue and sometimes take photographs and caption them. You can see my work at el paisano. In the last issue I covered the job fair on campus and at the fair I met representatives for Whittier Museum. I became a volunteer staff writer for the rest of the spring semester. I was writing articles for the whittier historical society gazette. In my spare time I photograph many things and locations and edit them in photoshop. I consider that my main job skills (photography taking and editing) That's the industry where I would most like to work at. I'm working on improving my photography skills especially in the people section. That is the area that needs the most improvement. I been looking for people to let me take pictures of them in a natural environment and in a studio like environment but it is hard to find someone that wants to do it for free. While I was typing this I also 'shopped this picture of my sister from the aquarium of the pacific. This is the before picture on top and the after picture is on the bottom. Keep in mind this was a quickie 4 minute edit
