I finally got my license and bought a car - life changing event right there. I know all of my friends are happy that I got that taken care of. It has been amazing to have that freedom. But I am happy I waited as long as I did, owning a car is pricey!
The following week, I took a voluntary layoff from my job at the PR firm. I cannot begin to describe how much I learned over the 9 months I was there or the amazing people that I met. But I knew in my heart it was time to move on. I needed that extra kick in the pants to move to Portland and my boss realized that as well (Thanks Tam)! So, Thursday the 14th of April was my last day at WPR.
The next day, I had an interview in Portland through a networking connection. I ended up staying at the company all day getting to know people and ended with a contract to begin work the following Monday!
So far I love this company, and hope that I will be a full-time employee in the next few weeks. Bryan's parents have been amazing and have let me stay at their house while I get situated with living and working in Portland.
I could not be happier! This blog will be taking a new direction - to match the one that my life has.
Look for more posts to come about life in Portland!!
