  Painting Panda Pottery Studio is a paint-it-yourself pottery studio located in Tacoma, Washington Dome District. Our downtown facility allows for customers to paint premade bisque where we then fire the glazed pieces. My wife manages the studio, and I run the business operations. My critical role is creating new product lines, securing new distributors, and working with local and civic organizations such as the local PTO, Chamber of Commerce Tacoma, and the Tacoma Urban League. I also oversee the financial side of the business, and to ensure that we comply with local, state, and national tax laws.

  Main role was to keep the company's internet presence going. I built and designed the company website. This was critical to not only show potential clients past and current projects that we completed, but also the various services we provided. I also help to get additional clients that needed remodels, new builds, fence installs, etc. I worked with contractors to secure product for the client, and made calls to clients to setup schedules for projects. I wrote and updated bid proposals for various construction projects.
