Overall I like to look at myself as a Swiss Army knife. I feel I have had a fair amount of experience in the work force. Through it all I’ve gained a plethora of skills that make myself a valued Asset to any company. Although I have no formal schooling in IT, I have been tearing apart and rebuilding electronics since 9th grade. That along with the year I spent in NSU’s tech center have prepared me for many challenges I might face. I’m a unique person with a different skill set, and a lot of drive. I went from bag boy to Supervisor ant my first job. And patient care tech to CMA with many certifications at my last job. I love to grow with a company and as an human to be the best employee I can. Upon given a task I work until it’s completed. From the 2 years of college I had in the business field I understand what it takes to make a business succeed and thrive. And I feel adding me to your team fits right in that formula of success.
