I am a hard worker, responsible and reliable. I love overtime and will volunteer for it consistently. I am bilingual, and can speak Spanish fluently enough to run a non English speaking crew and consistently make production as I have done so in the past. I have no problems with asking for help if I need to learn something new, I also own any mistakes and I am quick to correct them. I strive to be an asset with a reputation for being a solid and versatile employee, having a good work ethic is a point of pride for me.
