Additional Information
I have worked several jobs over the years but I hold a person confidentiality at the utmost importance. I am very good at any job I have held always striving to perform at my very best.
I truly believe a person can do whatever they set their mind to and to never give up just because something becomes difficult.
Always keep in mind that it is important to set goals for yourself no matter how hard you may think it is.
I am a disabled individual but that does not stop me. I have an excellent work ethic and Im always on time to my job and complete my shift with all work finished.
I am a team player because it takes a team to make sure a business looks upon as professional and gets the job done.
