education
I started my business pre-pinterest, pre- community over competition, and heck, pre-smart phones! Just a 20 year old college student fresh out of her Disney Internship with Canon's first broad market SLR in her hands, thanks to a few hard earned Mickey dollars. If you had told me then that I would start a business less than a year later that would follow me through countless jobs, two degrees, getting married, and a cross country move, I would have turned and ran the other direction!
Needless to say finishing my Master's of College Education Degree and promptly leaving that career field 13 months later to pursue photography full-time was also unexpected. And while I miss my 18-19 year old students every day, I'm so grateful that my classroom now includes business owners & creatives looking to dive into their Strengths, brand identity & processes!
GREAT DREAMS ARE HEAVY AND THEY AREN'T MEANT TO BE CARRIED BY A SINGLE PAIR OF HANDS. - ashley scobey
