## Summary

Bryce Sills, Director of Sales at SendCutSend, traces his journey from a Pacific Northwest youth fascinated by mechanics to running a business and joining SendCutSend. He details his early experiences with modifying a 1986 Honda Prelude, learning graphic design, and working at Enco, a turnkey store builder for the optometry industry. Sills also recounts a disastrous stint at a Texas pinball company that turned out to be a SEC-shut-down Ponzi scheme, which ultimately led him to leverage his network and appreciation for SendCutSend's services to join their team.
