Skills
- I have acquired many different skills in my years of working and some out of necessity to support my family Quiet-Tune was probably the one I was most proud of as it started as a idea with one dealer and grew to a international company in three years In that short period of time we held fifty one percent of the archery industry stabilizer market
- The Snap-on assignment was bitter sweet as I was getting close to retirement but all of my superiors supported me & I was given a award for the job completed
- The construction skill is still being used as I have done all the construction for Feline Canine Friends, Inc a no-kill animal rescue in central Wisconsin I have done that for the past eleven years and we are finally almost complete In 2019 I was nominated for the Petco Foundation unsung hero award & there are only four people in the US that are accepted I was one of the lucky ones
Additional Information
I am looking for part time work as I have completed most of my own projects & am getting bored. I believe that you need to stay active at my age as my parents were good examples. My mother lived to 100+
