Summary
I have been a lifeguard for over eight years of my professional career. Since then I have climbed the ranks to Aquatics Manager of all three city public pools with 60 employees. During this time I also worked as a deckhand on Pier 39 in San Francisco where I worked closely with my crew and assisted thousands of patrons per day, while also manning and maintaining a hundred ton vessel. Currently I am hoping to gain sales experience, as I have found my passion in personal and strategic sales through my minor in marketing.
