Christina's Story
Life
Aloha to all my classmates-
Here's the 411 on me. I live in the Kansas city area and have for over 20 years. I'm not married, but have been with my fiance for over 8 years. We run 3 ebay businesses together. It's a lot of work, but good way to make a living. I moved to the KC area to further my education. Alot like Hawaii. An easier pace of life and the people are very friendly and kind.
I have been a seller on Ebay now for almost 6 years. Ebay has brought many opportunities to me.
Almost 5 years ago, I was laid off after 9-11, as many people were. I took on another job and after one week was injured to where I was unable to do the particular type of work that I had in the past. Sometimes bad things happen for a good reason. This is how I came across the Ebay experience.
Ebay has been a very positive change for me. I never thought I'd have to go back to school again, as it is a constant learning experience. It really made go forth and apply my education.
When I am not one of your most accommodating, friendly and honest sellers on ebay, I work as a photographer. I do professional work. I have worked for the NFL and once a year I work for a media (NBC sports)that broadcasts NASCAR. It's exciting work and looks good in a portfolio. I am also an educational assistant in our area. I teach art and art related projects. It's great to see young minds create and gives a wonderful sense of satisfaction.
I have also written a children's book and am presently a published author. The book is ...Expand for more
called, "What do doggies dream about?" Do a search on the internet and you'll find it.
Right now I'm raising a 7 month old pup named Kaleo. She's a handful and 1/2. I myself have no children. I think being one of 6 made me think twice about it. I enjoy working with kids and feel they need me more than having my own. They're inner city kids with lots of very sad issues. All you can do is encourage and love them.
I want to thank all of you who have made an effort to sign my book. I've come in contact with so many old friends and it's just great to hear from them again. Like time never passed, you know?
Take care all of you.
Aloha,
Christina
College
I attempted to attend college out of high school in Hawaii. Due to costs and just lack of interest at the time, I felt it was my best shot to move to the mainland and continue my education. I attended Mira Costa College for 2 years, where I earned my AA in Fine arts. I continued my education in the Kansas city area at UMKC and Johnson County College, where I obtained a secondary degree in Fine arts and elementary education. It took a while, but I made it. I apply my degree in my work where I own and operate a Graphic Arts/Photography business. I have done contracted work for such organizations as the NFL and NBC Sports. I have also become a published Children's book author as of Sept.'2003 and hope to have a series of books in the future. Mahalo for taking the time to read about me. Love to all my classmates where ever you are.
