Summary
I am a very motivated and hard-working individual, and have proven that in multiple different jobs. Being able to handle different tasks and manage my time well are a few of my other strong suits. Working in three very different work environments, I believe, will make me a very useful asset anywhere. I am a very adaptable person, and I work very well with others who are very determined to succeed. I am a Sports Media major at Butler and intend to be a reporter.
