“I’m a very organized, and energetic mother of two!” Cusumano tells PetaPixel. “I’m in my mid-30s and live paycheck to paycheck; working part-time at a tanning salon.

“I am also a starving self-taught ‘artist’ — I still feel weird calling myself an artist because I don’t consider myself one, but others seem to think I have what it takes to make a living off it!

“My boss, the guy who owns the salon, happens to own several other properties around town, including a storage unit. One of the guys who rented out a unit passed away a few years ago and eventually my boss had to empty out the unit.

“My boyfriend was doing some work for him at the time, and my boss asked him if he’d be interested in clearing out the unit. My boyfriend loves doing that kind of stuff, and when he found out that we could keep whatever we found inside as payment, he agreed immediately.”
