Summary
I am always willing to help improve process development. Safety is the number one priority especially working around chemicals and heavy equipment. I will always ask for help and find ways to make the jobs easier in the safest way possible. I communicate very well and comprehend how a process is ran. I tend to take a lot of notes but am very hands on with any task I’m given.
