Chenango Forks,NY
Summary
Organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. Willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals. I love collaborating with others to reach a common goal and when that goal is something I'm passionate about it adds to my motivation. I don't back down from added responsibilities or challenges. I will work until the job is done or there was a resolution to the challenge. I have been a volunteer at the USO nearest to me for almost a year and absolutely love the environment at the center, from working on any task needed, to the interactions with the soldiers, their families and the staff/volunteers.
