Summary
I am hard-working individual that does not back down from challenges. Examples of when my strong ethic has been shown is when I graduated with an Associate's degree and a highschool diploma in the same month by going through Fast Track Academy.

Furthermore, I am dependable, and enjoy working with a team. Therefore, I feel I can be a great addition to your team.
