Howard Young
Ellendale,DE
Summary
I've accumulated a lot of different skills over the years. Along with my background in construction, I've worked at a nursery and mixed soils, planted seeds and tended plants for years. I'm constantly continuing my education and I'll be graduating with a bachelors in operations management in December. As someone who has managed an online business, I understand time management, deadlines, customer relations, and customer satisfaction. I'm humble enough to be a laborer, but I'm knowledgeable enough to manage a business. I take pride in what I do, but I'm not to proud to take and accept criticism and advice. I have coached adult flag football as well, my teams were always competitive, and I learned a lot about managing different personalities while maximizing results.
