Summary

I have worked in a variety of environments, all with their own set of challenges to face. From customer service to factory/ warehouse work, and as a manual laborer as a window cleaning/ handy man business. I have learned how to learn in a new environment on a quick notice and have transitioned that into my current job to teach new employees how to operate more effectively.
