Summary
I am a highly motivated, hard working team player looking to broaden my horizons. Most of my experience falls in agriculture, but I am eager to learn and apply the knowledge necessary to excel in construction or remodeling. Growing up ranching has taught me responsibility, and a stout work ethic.
