Personal Summary

Having recently graduated from Florida State University with two bachelor’s degrees, I now feel that it is time to further my career in the lucrative auction industry. I feel as though my outstanding interpersonal skills and passion for history will carry me as far as I want to go within the business. My short and long term goals both include making my employer as much money as possible through the use of proper customer service and sales practices. 

Work Experience

Auction House Assistant
Jun 2020 - Dec 2020 Affiliated Auctions

Over the past year, I have worked tirelessly with Affiliated Auctions and Aaron Joseph LLC to not only expand the reach of their online auction platform, but to also maintain and foster consignor relationships. I have honed my interpersonal skills, and have made invaluable connections with clients from all over the world. I have also gained a vast knowledge of sales, militaría, fine art, precious metals, and weapons along the way. The auction business is booming, especially online in these trying times. As it stands, I see auctioneering as an exercise in relationship building and customer service most of all. Being able to make consignors money and build a reputation is both enjoyable and fruitful.
