Addison Rivard

I am a very self-reliant person who is well suited to independently solving problems in unusual circumstances. Further, this often includes issues for which I am not familiar with how to solve, however my intuitive and practical nature means that I learn quickly and most often succeed in resolving these issues. I am also a very outwardly calm person and possess and an excellent sense of direction, making me very comfortable working in unfamiliar places such as local forestry or new towns.
