I am currently working for the City of Salina at Kenwood Cove as a Head of Maintenance, My duties include, but are not limited to:

• Inspecting equipment and systems for safety and functionality.
• Manage daily maintenance tasks for facilities at Kenwood Cove.
• Communicate effectively with team members to resolve maintenance issues promptly.
• Ensure that all maintenance activities comply with relevant regulations and safety policies.
• Sanitize and clean sinks, mirrors, toilets and showers.
• Delegate work to staff, setting priorities and goals.
• Check inventory for required supplies and made lists for needed cleaning products.

I lived in Lawrence for a short period of time at the beginning of the year. During my time down there, I worked as an overnight stocker for the Kroger company, where I:

• Stocked shelves with products following store layout guidelines.
• Maintained cleanliness and safety standards in the stockroom area.
• Collaborated with team members to ensure efficient stocking processes.
• Operated equipment safely for moving heavy stock items when necessary.
• Reported damaged products and communicated needs to management effectively.

• Working for Heglund Farms served as a basis for increasing my skill set, and my critical thinking and problem-solving skills

During my time at Heglund Farms, I worked on a variety of tasks and positions, such as:

• Farm vehicle maintenance.
• Landscaping and planting.
• Home maintenance and repair.
• + a variety of odd jobs.

Working for Heglund Farms was one of the best jobs I could ask for; I had a new job to do every other week, and it helped me build and learn a lot of skills that would come to help me in the future.
