However, I grew up in East Flatbush, Brooklyn.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The best customer interaction I\u2019ve had at UncommonGoods was\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nWhen I returned a package to a customer that was mistakenly delivered here for the holiday season. It was a box filled with handmade gifts by her grandchildren. Although it was 5 months after Christmas, she was so happy that she cried. That made me feel really good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I\u2019m inspired by\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nA host of people and things! Children&#8211;because they are so blunt yet carefree. My aunt Michelle, who is simply AMAZING in every aspect!<\/p>\n<p><strong>My guilty pleasure is\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nCake and ice cream!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<\/p>\n<p><strong>An uncommon fact about me\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nI play the piano, clarinet, saxophone, snare drums, bongo drums, steelpan and a little flute.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My favorite place to hang out in New York City is\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nFood\/farmer markets! Any and all!<\/p>\n<p><strong>My style is\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nWhatever is clean! Haha! Seriously I have no clue.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Working at UncommonGoods, I\u2019ve learned\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nA lot about repurposing, reclaimed, and recycled items and their programs and benefits.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Would you rather&#8230;Be able to teleport to and from work every day OR have any car you choose and never have to pay for gas?<\/strong><br \/>\nOh, I\u2019d much rather teleport!
