    • Background & Goals

    Originally born and raised in Aurora, IL and moved to Chicago when I was 19. I have been pursuing a bachelors degree for the past 5 years and set to graduate in December of 2018. I am currently working on expanding the small business I have been working on since I was 18, Animated Music. It is a resale business that operated solely online selling CD’s, records, cassette tapes, and music memorabilia. After I graduate, I plan on solely working on for myself. Short term, my goals are to graduate and take many vacations next year. In the long term I plan on opening a record store here in Chicago.
