"I worked for Student Painters all four summers of my college career. A sense of excitement and dedication to a challenge, what we now call the Entrepreneurial Spirit, caught hold of me and has never let me go. I love, not only the general entrepreneurial task of taking a business concept and trying to grow it to its maximum potential, but also the specific task of Student Painters; bringing that eye-opening, life-changing entrepreneurial experience to other exceptional young people. The best reason to be a Branch Manager is to pave the way towards opening your own business later in life."

"I started Student Painters as a Branch Manager my freshman year at the University of Washington. I ran my business in Seattle for two summers winning Manager of the Year for both years. I was promoted to District Manager in my third year and was the International District Manager of the Year for two years. At the start of my fifth year Dwayne and I started Studentpainters.net. Student Painters was the best thing that ever happened to me. From it I gained confidence, skills and experience along with numerous other rewards, the best of which was becoming the co-owner of Studentpainters.net and a true entrepreneur. I love running my own business and enjoy even more being able to say that I truly love my job and am proud of what I do. Creating successful entrepreneurs from the exceptional and motivated students I work with is a fun and amazingly rewarding career. I couldn’t ask for a better way to spend my 'working' hours."
