Summary

I have worked as a groundskeeper, being recognized for working well under pressure and quickly adapting to guidelines. I'm quite meticulous and attentive in my work, as I have many years of hands-on experience maintaining lawns, yards, and landscaping elements. I'm a reliable laborer, ready for challenging work in many environments and a highly-motivated employee with desire to take on new challenges. I'm adept at working effectively unsupervised and quickly mastering new skills when required. In addition to my labor skills, I'm an driven and outgoing university student. I am pursuing employment with flexible part-time hours with weekend and evening shift options.
