Summary
Well experienced with a proven track record in both my current and former positions to excell and grow in any career path. I am flexible, reliable, and work well under pressure if deadlines need to be met.

I have a strong sense of loyalty and very much value being part of a team. Efficiency without sacrificing quality of work is a priority. I am skilled in inventory management and effective team engagement, and have also implemented an efficient scheduling system for my current employer. Training staff, and being a reliable team collaborator, I am focused on achieving results, and flexible to meet different needs as they evolve. I am a very focused person, and would remain as such even in repetitive and continuous tasks.
