Summary
With a drive for competitiveness, motivation, and leadership, I am committed to finding optimal solutions to any challenge presented. Drawing from my experiences as a high school swim team captain, a supervisor at a surf shop at the age of 19, and later as a lead in a factory setting, I have honed my ability to adapt and thrive in unfamiliar environments. My collaborative nature is complemented by empathy and kindness, allowing me to cultivate curiosity and learn from those more experienced around me. I believe these qualities make me a valuable asset to any team.
