Summary
I am 19 years old with a Highschool diploma received at Highland school, located in Warrenton, Virginia. Currently I am attending the University of Lynchburg, located in Lynchburg, VA with plans to major in business with a minor in communications. I am in the class of 2024 as well as apart of the varsity baseball team here at the university. I have many attributes that can be applied in my daily life due to the various types of labor roles I've taken on. Previously, I have worked in an auto body shop as a bed line worker which helps me become more mechanically sound. I have also worked as a prep cook, and a delivery driver which has lead me to work very efficiently to meet time expectations of costumers. I also have worked as a farm hand and a construction worker which both helped me gain knowledge with heavy machinery such as tractors, saws, mowers, and more. Working on a farm and for a construction company taught me to use many different tools and be crafty with my hands.
