Change of Pace | Daija

Wickenden St

I work for a marketing and energy company in Providence. I’m just working, going around selling energy to folks that live in a house or an apartment. Just working and enjoying the sun.

I’m actually on break and then I’m probably going to restart again in probably 20 or 30 minutes. Before this job, I worked for the Patriots. So pretty cool. And I worked in their sports and food. And then I decided that after being in the culinary industry for about 10 years, that I wanted a change of pace. I decided to go into marketing and sales. And here I am.

In Providence, I’ve been here for about maybe almost three years. I went to Johnson and Wales for graduate school. Culinary. I’m actually from White Plains. It’s about 40 minutes from New York City.

I’m always like, when I go to work and do anything, I’m trying to be positive. I guess, you know, just give your full potential to whatever you’re doing and enjoy what you’re doing and have fun. Because life is too short to be upset about the small things.
