Summary

I have been in the construction industry for 7 years and in this time I have learned to understand the importance of creating systems to improve workflow and optimize productivity. I have experience being a leader on jobs leaving me with on the fly decisions when something unexpected happens. I believe the work you produce is a reflection of who you are and i take pride in my work and work ethic. I am always looking to better myself as a person and my knowledge in the construction and business industry. I would describe myself as organized, detail orientated, motivated, and time efficient.
