Summary

I am an inherently decisive individual who thrives on working in dynamic environments. If given a job, I will follow the directions to the letter; conversely, I can work with little to no instruction or supervision. I take responsibility and troubleshoot problems as they arise. I am a natural leader; I have experience managing a team of eight or more people. I posses the cognitive abilities to mitigate risk at the highest level, observe environmental conditions, remain calm while executing a difficult task, and perform specific, delicate maneuvers in high stress environments. At the end of the day I am humbled by the camaraderie of a cohesive team that can get the job done right.
