Kalea Brock
Cleveland,TN
Summary
I'm a highly-motivated and highly-trainable employee who is ready to learn a new skill or two, face some challenges, and bring value to your team. With my wide range of abilities I could weld you a new front bumper with parts I had to import from an over-sea supplier or I could just hold an awkward conversation while ringing up your dinner tonight. Either way I may not be the best or most trained candidate for this position but I'm willing to learn, grow and adapt to the company.
