Summary
Currently a college student on a break I am seeking to contribute to a small business in the community and convert the skills I have developed as a student and volunteer by leveraging my strong ethic of hard-work, honesty, integrity and accountability. This combined with a strong detail orientation and aptitude for numbers, language and problem solving will enable me to be a productive and valuable member of your team.
