SEBASTIAN SMITH

I am seeking a career in the field of Risk Management and Insurance industry. I have a fairly diverse background in Information Technology, specializing in both hardware (computer networking and phone systems) and software (programming various systems and web design). For the past decade, I've primarily worked in the manufacturing sector. I am continuing my education at New Mexico State University currently, pursuing a Master of Business Administration.

My approach involves not only defining daily and weekly objectives but also assessing what can realistically be achieved and estimating the time required. In project management, I strive to bridge the gap between set objectives and actual deliverables, ensuring clarity in goal setting and outlining detailed project steps. Effective project management entails motivating teams and providing tools for progress monitoring.
