Summary

I am very flexible in whatever field I am placed in with the ability and motivation to step above what is expected of me, including branching into over groups responsibilities and helping junior and senior crew members when I can. I bring a positive atmosphere that promises to rope in customers to want to come again and again looking for my service, and provide the best experience my customers could possibly have regardless of the circumstances.
