Summary

Through out my work career and daily life, I always try to reflect and evaluate what I could do better in everyday tasks and seemed to get better everyday as I challenge myself to put myself in uncomfortable situations and learn more on even making the mistakes and turning it around and making it not happen again and learning more on first mistakes. My Family, Friends, Colleagues, and Mentors could say that i'm a guy that's "going places in this world" with them knowing all the struggles and challenges I had to overcome, even as a African-American adolescence. Fortunately as a result from my up bringing, I challenged myself by putting myself in a whole different setting and comfortability to further my conquest in Schooling, Skills and Experiences, Coming from Baltimore Maryland and what I gained from Michigan. My Professional and knowledgeable office clerk offering several years of experience in administrative support and customer service. Highly efficient planning, problem-solving, and communication skills. Hardworking and passionate job seeker with strong organizational skills eager to secure entry-level position. Ready to help team achieve company goals. Organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. Willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals. More or so though-out my profession and personal life. I would consider myself a growing delight; I go out my way to make a easier work environment and have around; as others would say others I've came in contact-with as well.
