Summary

Throughout my life, technology has always been at the forefront. From computers to the world of sound engineering, it has always grabbed my attention. I started tinkering at a very young age with computers, assembling my first in middle school. I started working at a young age in freight forwarding, which helped to build up a fundamental work ethic. I've been at the Gordon Center for over half a decade now. In this time I've managed to deliver impactful solutions and contributions to project success. I've demonstrated proficiency in troubleshooting technical issues and optimizing performance. I have extensive experience providing innovative solutions and enhancing operational efficiency. I frequently have participated in collaborative teamwork and achieving impactful results while adapting to changing requirements. I have technical expertise and problem-solving skills.

I realize I do not meet your educational requirements, however I believe my over half decade experience directly working with medical simulators (including Gaumard models) more than makes up for a traditional 4 year college education. With your consideration, I would entirely dedicate myself to proving I belong in your innovative and impactful company.
