Tell us a bit about yourself. 

I run a local experimental music label where I book shows and promote other music artists in the Cincinnati area. I was looking for something to supplement my income and one of my best friends told me about Upshift. I got started in April and have been using it regularly ever since.

How has it been working on Upshift?

It’s been a really cool experience so far. I have picked up lots of shifts with Chef’s Choice Catering, Arandell Corporation, Kenwood Country Club, and several hotels around the area. I’ve worked in a variety of positions ranging from working in kitchens as a cook to cleaning hotel rooms and even working in light industrial facilities. I like switching it up and working at different businesses so I can keep adding to my skill set. Overall, I’ve really enjoyed being able to set my own hours and make my schedule as I go. I love using Upshift so much that I’ve even gotten a few of my friends to sign up as well.

What do you like most about Upshift?

The thing I like most about Upshift is the ability to work when I want. I like that I can pick and choose which shifts work with my schedule for that week. Another thing I’ve really enjoyed is the opportunity to learn so many new things at each business I go to. Since I’ve worked in such diverse positions, I’ve gotten the chance to build my skills and do things I never thought I would do.
