Summary
My name is Kayla and I am a jack of all trades. I know a little about a lot. I am knowledgeable in operating large machines, automobiles, cannabis, and many other fields of expertise. I can communicate well, and do well in working with a group or solo. I get tasks done on time and accurately. I was a stay at home parent that is why I have gaps in my work history.
