Christopher Bureau
Rochester,MN
Summary
I feel like I am a strong candidate to go to Germany because I have a wide variety of work experience and skills that are transferable to almost any job from people skills (referee, food stand) to leadership (4-H, camp counseling, Civil Air Patrol) to organizing and time management (snow removal, babysitting) as well as practical skills in construction, cabinetry, electric and woodworking. I feel that my experience helps me to easily adapt and jump into any job and adjust quickly to be successful.
