I have consistently demonstrated service, communication, and organizational abilities in every aspect of my bus/rail operator role at King County Metro, and I invite you to review my detailed achievements in the supplemental questions and additional information sections of my application
I have collaborated with both safety and security committees to suggest corrective action plans based on operational observations
I identify areas of concern and communicate them through meetings, emails to management, Origami/SSaM Reporting and Make Change Happen forms
I have experience assisting others with Origami/SSaM Reporting and my keen eye for detail helps me identify hazards before they lead to incidents/accidents
My years of communication with management, supervisors, and peers have enabled me to develop practical solutions through less formal channels.
