Summary

Efficient, Safe, Patient, and Dependable. At twenty-one years old, with a two-year-old son, I am in search of a long-term career with Nucor. Being that I was raised in, and currently reside in Swansea, an opportunity with Nucor would be ideal.

I enjoy hunting, fighing, working on cars and time spent with the family on my down time I am a hard dedicated worker, who works hard safely. I keep my workspace clean and always follow procedure with what's at task. I can lift heavy equipment, keeping the safety of myself and those around me in mind. I am able to work on schedule to complete my daily tasks. I work well with others or alone and can multitask thoroughly and safely. I have developed multiple skills, including fencing, woodwork, metalwork, landscaping, and the use of machinery.

I am a committed career seeker with a history of meeting company needs with safe, consistent, and organized practices. Skilled in working under pressure, adapting to new situations, and challenges to best enhance work duties.

I believe I could be a long-term, dependable, hardworking employee for Nucor if given the opportunity, and I look forward to meeting you all.
