>> So I went to Cal State Long Beach.
I studied marketing and I minored in sociology.
And I was first interested in that because I wanted to be an entrepreneur.
So I decided you know what better place to start off than with marketing because you have
to be able to market your business and get the word out?
And so that's kind of how I started and that's why I chose my major.
And then later on as time went by, I eventually graduated after five years
and then I went out into the job market.
And started looking for marketing jobs but I wasn't very successful
at actually getting hired at any of them.
And it was kind of a tough time just because I was competing with a market
that was more experienced than I was but I always try to tell myself keep going.
Keep moving forward.
Keep interviewing even though you're not getting a job.
I'm practicing.
So I kept interviewing and so I saw a guest service representative position posted
on the career website.
So I said you know what?
Let me take a chance with this.
It's part-time but it's in the entertainment industry and I always wanted
to work in the entertainment industry.
So I went for it.
So I had my interview at the L.A. Convention Center
for a guest service representative role and I got the job.
