Knowledgeable in Microsoft Applications; able to type 33.4 word per minute; forklift trained

I'm semi proficient in Microsoft Application such as Excel, Word, and Powerpoint, as for typing 33.4 word per minute is really low but I've been practicing lately so it should be fine. Forklift trained is I know the inside and outside of the forklift because I've been using that equipment since I went through the military and when I was on Temporary Technician position we have to have training on the certain equipments we use daily and that includes Forklift.

Additional Information

I'm seeking to improve and expand my skills and knowledge.
