Summary

Well versed and experienced with a multitude of trades and life experience. Knowledgeable with over 7 years assisting in the ground up creation and operation of a small company. With now nearly these last 3 recent years in a similar field.

With nearly 10 years of business management, my problem solving skills have grown immensely and leading by example hold myself to a higher standard than most.
