I am a very personable, highly creative, effective and analytical person who is very motivated in my career. I always go the extra mile and am known to have a high level of efficiency and detail in my work skills. I am always looking for ways to increase production and build my own skill base accordingly, in order to successful move forward the company and my career. My analytical skills have proven to be an asset as I have on numerous occasions been the “go to person” to solve and research problems for many, in both my job and in a community capacity. I seek a position which will encourage my learning and growth, as well as utilize my skills.
