Summary

I have been taught from a young age to be honest, trustworthy, and hardworking. I have lived my life by those three characteristics. I try to do everything I participate in to the fullest and with dignity. Whether that's working as an apprentice for my employer, playing sports in high school, or even volunteering for my towns annual festival. I have participated in many different jobs, activities, and events throughout my life and I fully believe doing so has built me into the person I am today.
