Summary

Thank you for taking the time to read my resume and I hope you are having a good day today. Here is just a little bit about myself: I grew up in Yulee FL. where my mom retired from Kingsbay TTF after 35 years and my dad is a retired boat captain who entertained customers for Gilman for over 25 years. I played baseball and football growing up and received a scholarship to play for Lambuth University in Jackson TN. After football was over I didn't know what I wanted to do, I came home and started working, mostly construction jobs. I was laid off several times when the housing market collapsed in the early 2000s. I decided to try something different and I was working an HR job making about $12 per hr before I was hired on at West Rock. I've worked at the paper mill going on 8 years now and I'm very grateful to have a job there. However, due to our swing shifts, working days and nights and 12 hour shifts, I miss a lot of my boys events. I have a 7 year old and a 2 year old and I'm looking for a new career that will allow me to be at more ball games and other events in the future. I also would like to be able to coach more as well. I've worked with a few other guys that have left the mill and joined Lockheed and they all love it there and I hope to join them in the move. Thank you again and I look forward to working at Lockheed Martin.
