Ricky Hood

Summary
Hello, my name is Ricky Hood, I’m acquiring employment with the hopes of bettering myself and my family’s life. Speaking of family I have three beautiful little children, a set of twins and a little baby girl. I pastor a church in Skyline going on about 7 years. I’ve worked at a few stores operating forklifts and ordering product to stock the shelves. Here and there I’ve operated equipment such as ski steers and escalators. Ultimately my passion and desire is to learn and grow wherever I am employed. I pride myself in being teachable and working hard to accomplish whatever task I’m given. From sweeping the floor to operating equipment I will give my all to be an asset to your company. Thank you
