My Life Resume — Or, the least professional resume you have ever read.

Too often we focus on our professional accomplishments that we forget about what we’ve accomplished in our day to day lives. This isn’t meant to be a brag, instead it is an experiment in recognizing successes outside of the workplace. In a way, I think this resume speaks more about who I am than my professional one.
