It's no secret that I'm a little bit (read: entirely) goofy. Don't get me wrong, my customer service personality can sell it up with the best of them.. .. but I've never really viewed my clients as customers. More like colleagues. The only problem is that they're the corporate office type while my persona is closer to a larrikin trade apprentice. I love to crack jokes, show up to Zoom with a skincare mask and a hair wrap on, and take a seemingly relaxed approach to almost everything. ...

The only problem is that they're the corporate office type while my persona is closer to a larrikin trade apprentice.

I love to crack jokes, show up to Zoom with a skincare mask and a hair wrap on, and take a seemingly relaxed approach to almost everything.

I know that this is not a widely accepted way of doing things. While the 'goof' in me is never reflected in my quality of work (and this constantly ticking mind is actually my secret sauce) people want to see a well-presented, serious professional.

So, I'm trying to change my ways.

I took a few corporate style shots to update my professional platforms.

I jumped over to Photoshop Express to polish one up, and what do they do?

SABOTAGE ME.

I cannot seriously be expected to decline an invitation to live out my Cyberpunk eGirl dreams by choosing a regular, professional overlay.

They knew I'd fail.

So, here's a heads up. I'm going to leave the beauty routine until after work hours, and I'll (try to) lay off the jokes a bit..

.. but you're always gonna have to deal with a little goof now and then if you ever work with me.
