I’m big on celebrations, and Paper Refinery is celebrating 5 years this month! I’m not actually sure the exact date... but I’ll never forget the moment. I sat down with my husband (terrified and unemployed) and told him that I wanted to put my job search on hold. I knew in my heart that Paper Refinery would be something if I could just put all of my energy into it. The next morning was my very first day at Paper Refinery FULL TIME and it changed my life in more ways than I can ever explain. I am so grateful to wake up every morning and love my job, be excited about my to-do list, and genuinely care about the people I work with. To every single one of you who has supported me, allowed me to be a part of your celebrations, and cheered me on... from the very bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. I cannot wait to see what’s in store for the next 5 years! .
