Summary

Dynamic and ambitious, with strong knowledge of the ocean and its marine life. Years of working on the water as a watersports guide provided me with invaluable marine experience. Certified in Microsoft Excel, boater certified, and actively looking to get my captain's and scuba licenses, I thrive in areas where others do not. Effective communication, a persistent mindset, and organized work can lead to unprecedented amounts of success. Using upcoming opportunities, I plan to learn, adapt, and grow throughout the future of my career.
