years of professional experience
I started working as a tree farm hand in high school, and then started working in lawn care. These first jobs cemented my work ethic and determination through long hours, extra shifts, and various weather conditions. My work as a sales associate and police officer has resulted in great people's skills, both when dealing with individuals with questions or in times of crisis. I have operated multiple vehicles across my job history including 2500 size trucks, sitting and standing forklifts, platform lifts, and tractors. I'm always a team player, and willing to put in extra hours as much as possible, and have helped trained people in the past on equipment and sales as a sales associate.
