Summary
During my time as a Services Journeyman in the Air Force, I was trained to recognize high productivity in work and seek out efficient task completion. Working in the Dining Facility, Fitness Center and in charge of Intramural Sports, I was skilled in troubleshooting, preventive maintenance, and customer service, ensuring optimal operational functionality. Excel in communication, teamwork, and adaptability working with various Squadrons, new and seasoned Airmen to seamlessly integrate into diverse work environments for collaborative success. These fostered skills were used as I transitioned to civilian life while working two jobs and going through school. As a Weight Room Attendant with prior experience in maintaining fitness facilities and providing guidance to gym members, I possessed strong knowledge of strength training equipment, safety protocols, and customer service principles. I would do my best to foster positive work environments and ensuring cleanliness of equipment and various surface involving food prep and distribution. My developed abilities to lead and teach various groups in various environments make me a crucial asset to any team.
