Summary

I am an adaptable team player eager to contribute. I have been exposed to a wide variety of problem solving opportunities in an array of high stress situations and enjoy challenges of every size. My experiences as a salesman, packer/shipper, airport line technician, firefighter/EMR, team member at a large event company, racing instructor, and more have taught me how to work as a team and individually, and that every job, no matter how big or small, is worth doing right.
