Personable Gardener bringing comprehensive knowledge of botany and horticulture, as well as the various planting seasons for trees, vegetables and flowers. Comfortable working in all seasons and willing to work a flexible schedule. I gained a vast amount of knowledge working for a migratory beekeeper who had 2500 hives and I was one of four workers who maintained the bees, processed honey, and moved them into orchards. I acquired many different agricultural as well as mechanical skills required to keep up with the fast pace and demanding aspects of a growing business. I have the physical capabilities to handle anything asked of me and I keep my body in peek physical condition. I also have the knowledge and experience to add to the physical attributes.

I obtained many skills along the way as I previously stated.I stayed at the peak of my mental and physical capabilities and gave 100% effort everyday I went out on the job. I stopped working for Mr. Slater due to his psychological problems that made it extremely difficult to maintain a positive and healthy work environment. We were also constantly on the road working in many different states which pulled me away from my family which was also a contributing factor.
Dates are approximate. I worked my way up from the bottom all the way to the top through a mix of acquired skill and hard work. I often trained new employees and was helping in every aspect of the business. Cooking, catering, extensive cleaning, stocking in dry storage, refrigeration, and freezers. The Owner/Manager (Dave Ballard) was very young when he took over so they were not in need of a manager at the time I was there. I had worked my way up as high as I could go and I was craving to learn more and unfortunately there was little else to learn so I began a new chapter as a migratory beekeeper. Though we still have a close relationship due to my likability and hard work ethic.
I am currently working on my AS degree in Natural Resources,I am very close to completing it but still have a few semesters left before I can graduate from Columbia. I am maintaining a GPA above 3.0 in college and in high school I maintained above a 3.5 GPA all the way up to a 4.0.
