BY IRIS B. HOLTON Sentinel City Editor
A Tampa woman disco- vered that she had a special gift helping others. She transformed that gift into a business and now she is preparing to help others.
Mrs. Jade Reynolds
said, “I started out helping family members and friends who were trying to get a job by helping with their re- sumes. And it really helped them because they were able to get call backs for in- terviews.
“Then, they started telling their families and friends. I wanted to start my own business for several years and at the beginning of this year, I started it,” she said.
As a resume of her desire to help others and in keep- ing with the season of giving back, Mrs. Reynolds is of- fering free resume upgrades

A 19-year-old Clearwater man was sentenced to prison last Friday. He pleaded guilty in October to DUI manslaughter, leaving the scene of an accident involving death, and DUI with property damage. His attorney re- quested he be sentenced as a youthful offender.
However, Hillsborough County Circuit Judge Christopher Sabella sen- tenced Adrian Dothe to serve 13 years in prison.
The accident took place on January 25th, on Courtney Campbell Causeway. Police said Dothe was driving more than 100 miles an hour when he lost control of the vehicle, struck the guard rail and then another car.
Dothe stated that he had drank several beers and smoked marijuana at the Pal- ladium Nightclub, 5305 S. Ar- menia Avenue. Dothe, his girlfriend, Leidy San Juan, 18, and two of their friends, Jonathan Mendoza-Pena and David Mendoza drove away from the club.
Mendoza-Pena and Mendoza, who were cousins, sat in the backseat and did not have seatbelts on at the time of the accident.

Both were ejected from the vehicle, police said.
Dothe had passed a car when he overcorrected and lost control. The airbag recorded a speed of 103 mph five seconds before the crash.
Mendoza-Pena died as a result of his injuries. Men- doza was cut by the glass.
After the accident, Dothe fled from the accident scene. He was arrested by Clearwa- ter Police about 30 minutes later. His blood alcohol level was 0.26, which is more than 3 times the legal limit.
