Summary

You will find me to be an energetic and enthusiastic hard worker who likes to work in a professional manner. You will see that my experience ranges from construction and demolition to door to door sales and customer service, but even more so you will see that I have more knowledge learnt outside of work or the lecture room to offer. Excelling in working solo and as a part of a team comes easy to me, as I can adapt quickly to blend into any situation, equipped with everything needed to get any job done. My friends and associates describe me as a people person because I can communicate well with a deep variety of people.
