Summary

This candidate is a older but extensively trained individual with a diversified background in the professional workforce. Given the opportunity he can and will demonstrate his full potential with the skills base that he has built through his career. A team player and yet not afraid to take the reins if necessary or climb into the trenches and get my hands dirty so to speak.

A loner by design one of the hardest things to overcome was learning to work with others and do so in a a positive manner. This hardship proved to be beneficial when it opened the door for him to train new hires and later, to the position of Administrative Assistant.

The opportunity to work for this company would be a pleasure and another chapter to a long and continuing story.
