MICHAEL AMENSON
Colorado Springs,CO
Summary
Organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. I am able to create and establish procedures with the needed supplies to get things done in an orderly manor. I created my business, Mike's Mowing, from scratch and worked for a few years budgeting my business to have the proper amount of growth to assess expenses (gas, blades, mower maintenance) and was able to grow my business twice the size in just one year. I am able to work with customers and have their needs met with clear lines of communication and can wear many different "hats" in a business.
