Summary

I am a well-rounded, passion driven, down to earth, and hard working individual. I have followed my heart and gut instinct since I was 16 years old, when I left my home and family in Turkey and emigrated to the US by myself to pursue my dreams. I graduated from the Oberlin College Conservatory, and established my own dog-training business soon after, which is still running today. I've worked in several fields and continue to expand my horizon. I have a diverse background of experiences, and a broad spectrum of abilities. I remain focused and goal oriented, and find joy in an amiable attitude and efficiency in the work place.

Sincerely,

Savas Altuntas
