Summary

Working in the shellfish industry for over a decade I have learned a wide range of skills that could apply to many jobs. Organizing crews and managing time to produce a product that meets the standards set. I have also become adapt to working in rough weather conditions and being able to change plans quickly and calmly. Although I still enjoy aspects of the work I feel as if my potential for growth is a bit hindered. I'm looking for work that challenges me to learn and be part of something I am proud of.
