Summary
I am a seasoned person who is not afraid of taking on and learning new challenges.
After retiring and moving to Costa Rica for 3 years, I've decided to come back home to the United States and be near family.
I enjoy staying busy, whether it be working inside, in the yard or with the animals.
I believe I could be an asset in the office to customers, co workers and management.
Thank you for your consideration.
