Summary
23 year old U.S. army veteran. Joined the military initially to serve my country after my 4 year obligation, I realized I wanted to serve my community outside the military and to pursue my purpose as a firefighter. I love working as a team and being part of something bigger then myself. I recently got my EMT certification, and will continue looking to better myself every chance I get. I am physically active and fit and consider myself a leader and a good worker. I keep working on my skills and I volunteer at my local fire department. I have worked many jobs and have been put in many different situations, which have given me the upper hand and experience. Thank you to whoever has viewed my summary and considered me for a future worker/ employee.
