Summary
Well seasoned deckhand and soon to be 100 ton Captain. I can advance my employers business by, excellent time management skills, clear communication, optimistic outlook, and never "too good" for any task. I come from a long line of small family business owners , this plays a factor in my conscientiousness work ethic. I enjoy having the opportunity to lead a crew towards a larger goal, as well as follow orders from my captains. Boats have allowed me to increase my natural people skills. I am an extremely social and enthusiastic person, and very open to constructive criticism. Love to work hard, and definitely not afraid to ask questions!
